Re: [PLUG] IDE PCI cards Linux support?

The HighPoint Rocket claims to be able to support 4 IDE devices:
http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA/r100.htm
So I guess I could have 4 drives on the PCI card, 2 drives on mobo IDE1
and the DVDWriter on mobo IDE2? I dont need real HA here, and am OK to
be at the mercy of the PCI IDE card dying. I just want my data to
survive a single HDD death.
Anyone used the HighPoint Rocket cards under Linux?
> Can (3) IDE cards be installed? I've never installed more than 1
Which card did you use? Was it on a Linux machine?
Thanks!
