hi guys i am looking to replace a existing raid controller as its out dated now i need 10 ports as i am using small disks to learn storage concepts and learning netapp and other vendors.

I am looking at the following controller

Any body know any better or will this work

i already have the disks and the backplanes thinking of changing the motherboard ram and cpu but this does not need to be overly powerful does it ?
 
Solution
If this is a learning project, then I would recommend finding a mainstream controller -- LSI, HP, Dell. Something that you could run into in a data center. That controller would never be in a data center IMO.
