Dear gurus,
I'm planning to setup a simple raid array. I will use it for rsync etc for my work laptop to get backups etc. Nothing mission critical, but anyway.
What I would like to have is my current linux box with HW raid card. I have been using SW raid with it, but somehow I don't prefer that. I'd like the idea that my linux would see only one disk, although it would be raid. My question is, can you recommend or give pointers to any reasonably priced HW raid adapters? Any hints that I should keep in mind when considering one? SATA would be preferred.
Other option would be just to by simple NAS (D-Link DNS-323 or something). I guess the performance is not that good, but that should be a pretty simple approach as well.
Thanks in advance!
