I'm looking to upgrade a Redhat 9 box to RHEL (amazing pricing for
academic institutions). My problem is our MegaRAID ATA-133 card is not
supported by RHEL and the vendor produces no binary drivers for RHEL.
This will be a production box, so I will not even attempt to use self
compiled drivers :) After talking to LSILogic (they make the card), I'm
told they don't really intend to product drivers for RHEL at this point.

This is my question, what is a good ATA Raid card for RHEL. I want
something reasonably priced (which is why we're going ATA instead of
SCSI). I also want something that is well supported under RHEL and
other distros.

Thanks in advance!
