We were using teh LSI8888 but I'll be switching back to Areca when we
go back to HW RAID. The LSI8888 only performed well if we setup 15
RAID-1 pairs in HW and use linux SW RAID 0 on top. RAID1+0 in the
LSI8888 was a pretty mediocre performer. Areca 1680 OTOH, beats it in
every test, with HW RAID10 only. Much simpler to admin.
