Re: 3ware escalade vs software raid, from a different jeff

In my opinion no. Most of the cheaper hardware raids are really just
software raid solutions. For the more expansive once always remember
you will always need drivers and there is no guarentee that you
will get them in two or three years. Some vendors do no longer exist
or no longer support that product.

Wasn't there some talk recently about standardizing the on-disk
format for both hardware and software RAID?
