I was just looking at 3Ware SATA RAID to replace the mother-board built-in RAID. I suppose it would still be fine to buy a card. Anything to replace the pseudo-software RAID from VIA with a true (low cost) hardware RAID card.
Silly anti-virus software conflicts with the VIA drivers every once in a while and freezes my system.

Just LSI and Adaptec? I know RaidCore is gone, but there's still a couple others around.

Promise (Intel Sunrise Lake chipset, same as LSI/Adaptec, they've come a long way.)

Highpoint (Also using Intel chipsets in the highend, Marvel in the lowend I think.)

Areca (16xx series Intel based, photos of 18xx series show change to Marvel chipsets? Maybe due to Samsung Spinpoint/SSD controller issues and semi-closed firmware?)

Supermicro (Also Intel bandwagon.)

HP and Dell make cards but I think they may be rebrands. I know the old Dell PERCs were AMI(LSI) boards.

SUN has their own cards, not sure what they use.

Oh and VIA has been showing a mini ITX-based NAS that's basically just a dedicated software RAID system.

Looks to me like the big loser is the PowerPC chipset 3Ware was using as Intel is starting to dominate the RAID processor market. However, software-based cards are still hanging around (Areca 1300 series, lowend Promise/Highpoint lines, Jmicron, SIIG, etc), making me wonder where all those RaidCore guys went when Ciprico died.

So now it's down to LSI and Adaptec in North America.
