Hi folks.
I'm looking for new SUPPORTED RAID controllers.
Is the 3Ware Escalade 8006-2LP supported?
If not then will it be?
Also, if anyone has related recommendations (which controller and/or
where to buy) then please let me know.

Thanks,
Steven

Nope. (Unless you want 'bios level' support - it works, but there's no way
to manage the array.)

Never, unless they provide documentation.

Thanks!
BTW Where can I check a list? The 3.8 page and 3.8 change log don't have
enough info.
