The 9650SE is a PCI Express card, not PCI-X. The 9550 series is PCI-X and is natively supported.

I would recommend PCI-E if you want the fastest card available, and using the 'linux dd' option before you install CentOS 5 allows you to load the 3ware kernel module prior to installation which is what I did to get my 9650SE-16 working. ;-)

Yup, I installed a 3ware card on the weekend using the driver disk from http://www.3ware.com/KB/article.aspx?id=14546
