I'm currently running an Enhance E8 MS with a HPT RR3340. I simply don't trust the HPT card, and due to a horrendous customer service experience with them when my last card went bad, I want to go with an ATTO.

Proavio is Enhance Technology in southern California. Their stuff works fine, but use their product with an ATTO or Areca card. They often recommend the Highpoint products, but I have had terrible luck with this product line.

If you already have 4 new "1K drives" (what is a 1k drive - do you mean 1TB drives ? ) - you can either follow my advice and buy a 1TB (4 250 gig drives) of Cal Digit HDElement or Maxx Digital 4 bay EVO2, and throw out the 250 gig drives, or you can | | | | |

yes - this is the same as the Sonnet Technologies product - Sonnet buys their boxes from Proavio (Enhance Technology), and uses the ATTO R380 card.
Yes - x4 is perfect, and this is what you should use. Once you setup your RAID 5 with 8 drives, you | | | | |

If you like Sonnet, then you might also want to look at Enhance Technology's boxes. They OEM for Sonnet, so you might be able to get a better deal on basically the same thing. Looks like Sonnet is moving towards selling full systems with disk drive | | | | |
