I have been looking at the Dell Poweredge sc420 for some time. It has a built in sata controller that supports raid 1,2. Dell also says that this system supports RHEL ES3.0 Anyone have any luck running raid on this server out of the box? Anyone have any other option advise for a system in the same price range that would be a better solution than this. The server would be used as a file server for a business with about 5 users. Starting price for the server is, $299 and comes to $430 w/tax and the options I am looking at. Details can be found here. http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=us&cs=04&kc=6W3...

After seeing the horrible lack of support for Promise cards in Redhat Enterprise/CentOS, I am looking for a recommendation for a good IDE RAID controller that is supported out of the box (i.e. I would prefer not to have to install via a driver disk).
I would prefer ATA 133 over Serial ATA for now.
As others have already stated, 3ware is pretty much the way to go. Their drives have been in the main kernel for quite some time.
