OT: need advice on drive controller
I am thinking of getting an Areca ARC-1222 connected to 6 sata drives
in raid 10.
http://www.areca.com.tw/products/pcietosas01.htm
I have read good things about the ARC-1220 (iop333) sata only. The
ARC-1222 (iop348) is the newer generation (sata or sas).
Does anyone have advice/experience on this drive controller?

Supermicro SAS/SATA controllers?
..., but does it causes issues with ZIL?
The LSI1078 has 512MB DDR2 onboard cache with a battery backup option.
With OpenSolaris will this function as a NVRAM when using the battery
backup option, allowing "zil disable"? Has anyone tested this? Is it useful
at all?
There is also a Intel IOP348 8 port controller with 256MB DDR2 and battery
backup. Does this work with OpenSolaris? How about the battery/cache
function?
Or is it better to consider SSD caches instead of the above for zfs?
I''m building a new system and any thoughts on the above would be useful.

ZFS ZIL + L2ARC SSD Setup
I have some questions about the choice of SSDs to use for ZIL and L2ARC.
I''m trying to build an OpenSolaris iSCSI SAN out of a whitebox system,
which is intended to be used as a backup SAN during storage migration,
so it''s built on a tight budget.
The system currently has 4GB RAM, 3GHz Core2-Quad and 8x 500GB WD REII
