4 channel RAID card

[cybermaniac]

hey guys

i need a 4 channel RAID card that supports RAID 1+0/0+1 and it needs to go in the PCI-E 1x slot.

any ideas?

cheaper the better - as long as it does the job decently........probs budget of about £60-80

unfortunatly thats for PCI-X. I need it for my PCI-E 1x slot.

ah, sorry...misread though seems to very few cards matching your exact requirements...

hmmm only had luck finding a 2-channel that matches exactly...no 4-channel however I did find one but its very rare...only newegg seems to stock it

hmmmmm i've been hearing alot about these rocketraid cards........they seem to be the shiz when it comes to low end cost raid

Hmm, from looking a while back, the cards taking 4 drives or more in raid are a bit pricey.

If u want to use a pci slot and would consider raid3, 3 drives with a redundancy, I have some XFX Revo cards that I could sell u for a stupid price.

nah, I need RAID 10 on this one, as it will be rather important data and i need 100% backup.
