Wanted: Server RAID Controller

[Franna]

I'm urgently looking for a RAID controller to replace a faulty server card. Can anybody in Cape Town (or South Africa) maybe help!

Looking for one of the following cards:

Intel RAID SRCS16 "Sawtell" Controller

LSI MegaRAID SATA 150-6 Controller
http://www.lsi.com/storage_home/pro...d/megaraid_sata/megaraid_sata_1506/index.html

Any help appreciated...

I assume, from the second link, that this is for SATA and not for SAS or SCSI?
Adaptec had always been my preference. Maybe something like this or this?

It is a six port SATA1 controller card with an Intel 80302 I/O Processor in PCI-X format.

The links I provided do have SATA RAID adapters. Have a look and see if this is what you need.
The links was just a result of a quick search on google.

I need a RAID controller with the EXACT same I/O processor otherwise I will not be able to import the existing RAID config and volumes. The Adaptec cards will not work.

Now is probably not the time to ask whether any backups was done to tape drive...

Good luck with your search...
