I am using an adaptec 2400A card currently. I have 2.4.6 kernel compiled and
the adaptec 2400A driver patched in. I have had no problems with this card.

Im really attached to my 3ware cards, they are the best ide raid cards I've
used. The newer boxes I built just use software raid 0/1 which is easy now
that everyone throws 4 UDMA100 channels on their motherboards.
I've also done the i2o driver fixups for the Promise SuperTrak100 with a
card provided by Promise and that works in -ac but not yet Linus tree.
I'm more impressed with the 3ware than the promise card right now, although
it will depend on workload. The promise card has onboard caches and raid5
hardware which the earlier 3ware didn't.

I've been pricing out a 3ware-based raid system for my own personal use. Are
the problems wuth the Escalade cards bad enough to consider not using them
with 2.4.7?
It seems that the only ATA-raid cards supported in the kernel tree are the
3ware ones. What's the word on the Adaptec 2400A card?
Thanks,
