Compaq. See <http://www.compaq.com/products/servers/linux/> for Compaq's misguided (and hopefully temporary) fixation on other distributions. But other documents indicate there is general Linux support for Compaq equipment, including RAID controllers.
from: <ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/products/servers/linux/Compaq-ProLiant-HowTo-JA.pdf> "Compaq Storage Controllers The Wide Ultra2 SCSI or Wide Ultra2 SCSI-3 Controller series are based on Symbios Logic (LSI Logic) chips, while the Wide-Ultra3 SCSI controllers are based on Adaptec technology. These are both supported under Linux. The Linux kernel includes driver support for the Compaq Smart Array Controller family." For those unfamiliar, the "Smart Array" brand is what Compaq calls its RAID controllers. In conclusion: Compaq. Burn money for quality.
