And this is another case of Nate M. not reading someone's post before
attacking them. Tip: read the part where I said "if you already
have other disk access for the boot drive and are using these
controllers as expanded storage."
Alltech carries the standard controllers, and I provided a means to
contact them. I'm listing both options for two different cases. Is
that so hard for you to understand, Nate?
Get _your_ facts straight before you attack someone else.
