i've experienced the TX2, and it's not smooth. Lot of crashes (kernel
oops, panic). Not a"real" SATA RAID controller ... experimental driver,
for me it's not way! ( Dell does not include the card into their RAID
poweredge 400SC because ( i think ) of these problem. They prefer
include the PERC sata 100 RAID 4ch and this last one works with no
problems)
