Re: Esmith

Yup.

Creditude.com runs on sme 5.6 and a 3Ware raid setup.

Happy to demo the setup and management consoles at the next meeting if
we have an ADSL hookup....

3Ware cards are GREAT.  Cost me about 250 AUD for a small 2 port one. 
All the features, speed and linux device drivers and management apps you
could want.

I have also done a bit of dev work with Eric Womak the original creator
of a customised e-smith install script for the 3ware raid cards under
e-smith,

Using them is as easy as using e-smith is...  ;-)
