Adaptec 2420SA

So I got one of these cheap off of ebay to play around with

I am planning on using it in my OpenFiler box, but was curious if anyone has any experience with one to warn me about

I will update on how it works for me once I get it in.

Ockie found them to be slow with RAID arrays, but with software raid it may work ok, kind of curious to hear back from your "study" start with the latest driver and firmware....

Well I got it in, but the system I was going to use it in seems DOA (one of the Tyan servers that geeks.com had on sale) so it will be a bit before I can give any kind of report on it.
