It doesn't have PCI-E, I think. Pretty sure it's PCI-X...4 64-bit slots (really long ones) and one 32-bit one, that I have the wireless card plugged into now.

Then here.

I know the price seems high but these are TRUE hardware based RAID cards. They have their own processors and memory buffers. Things like Promise and High point are software raids. They dump the workload onto the CPU and system memory. If you go with software raid for price then it really doesn't matter which you get as long as it has the number of porsts you need and raid type you want. They all use similar chips and generally **** IMEO

x2 on RAID 5 FTW!

nDeed. I have been running RAID5 with 4 drives since about 02. I even keep a 5th identical drive in the closet for the event of failure on one.

Maybe I could find one used from someone upgrading to something with PCI-E.

Try http://www.2cpu.com

Lot of server builders/owners there. They have a for sale section.

Most hold on to their 3wares though. I am still using the same card over 6 years later. It is a PCI-X card with 4 IDE ports. With the speed and stability I have gotten from this card through a PCI-X slot, I haven't seen the need to upgrade the card to an SATA solution. Eventually I will have to of course.
