I'm not sure what you're complaining about here. Are you amazed at my
description of a board which is basically a small UPS and doesn't add
any processing power or memory to the raid controller? Or are you
dismayed that I'm surprised that without this board performance wouldn't
be competitive with typical desktop PC?

Thanks to all who replied, by the way.
