RAID controller for Debian

What RAID controller you woul recommend for use with Linux Debian?

My current setup is:
60GB 7200rpm Maxtor - boot drive and 120GB 5400rpm Maxtor for video only, I'll get another 120Gb Maxtor and would like to make RAID0 (cheap as possible...).
Or is it worth to get simple controller (non-RAID) and go for Software RAID?

Tnx.
 
Well, I use Debian, but I have to ask why you need RAID. Kernel drivers are kernel drivers. It doesn't matter what distrobution system you use.

Anyway, what are you going to use RAID 0 for? I'd be particularly wary of using RAID 0 with the Extended 2 File System. When it messes up, it messes up. It's bad enough to fix everything without a striped array.

If you really want to do it (and I'll admit I know zip about raid), check out the comp.os.linux.* groups. Usually very helpful people there, since you don't seem to be getting much help here.
