Raid card that works in Fedora

[Peter Kiem]

Hi Rob,

I recently purchased a 3ware 7506-4LP card for a new RHEL server I was
building.  I decided to try out FC1 with it before I put RHEL on.

It worked flawlessly under FC1, no driver issues or anything.  FC1 just
saw it as one large SCSI drive.  A no brainer.

I've tried the hot-swap feature under RHEL.  I was able to remove one
the the IDE drives and the system never even knew it was gone.

I put the drive back in and rebuilt the array.  The system again didn't
even know anything.

The $$ spent on the 3ware card was worth every cent in my books.
