I'll be assembling a terabyte of IDE RAID network attached storage,
and was looking for some advice on:
- best supported and most reliable multi-channel IDE controller;
- best supported and most reliable NFS implementation;
- any other random advise about things to do or not do in setting up
this type of system.

I just came across a very good page on exactly the same issue. Have a look
at http://www.research.att.com/~gjm/linux/ide-raid.html.

See http://www.linux-ide.org/chipsets.html . (3Ware controllers are the
only supported IDE RAID controller)

Don't use an NFS exported reiserfs filesystem. (see this mailing list
