GLC,

Is that raid card you suggested support multiple cards in case I need to expand, or would I have to build another system, or would I set up two seperate raid arrays if I used two cards on one mobo. I anticipate needing more than 4.5TB so I'd like to incorporate some expaniblility. Or should I go with one of the 12 or 16 sata drive raid cards I noticed. I anticipate eventually using upto about 7-8TB. maybe more as I get more movies. Not to mention all the TV shows I would store.
