Hello, I am currently planning to upgrade my adaptec 3805 to the 6 series, 6805.
In short, anyone has the card and can tell me how much it takes for it to boot? The time it takes from start to having a single raid 10 array ready for use?
I pretty much know all the tech specs of that card but this. The reason I'm asking this is that, contrary to the normal usage ppl do of these cards, for me it's gonna be sitting in a high end gaming pc and its gonna handle mostly music, movies, pictures you don't want to ever lose, and some games. I could migrate it to a NAS instead but that's not the plan for now. The pc is not going to be online 100% of the time so bootup time is also important. My current 3805 takes about 3 times as much for it to boot vs the rest of the system. I got a strong SSD for the OS so booting up is particularly short with it alone, but not so much with the raid card.
Of course boot time is not the only thing that matters but that's the only information I'm missing right now before making a final decision.
Thanks in advance!
