Linux compatible PCIe SSD?

[kankamuso]

Hi all,

I am looking for a Linux compatible PCIe SSD card. As a relatively new to the field, I don't really know the state of the art for such peripherals like bootable/non-bootable devices, those supporting trim and those who don't, etc... I am planning to use it under Proxmox, a Debian Squeeze-based distribution with a RHLE6 customized kernel. This is going to be used for virtualization purposes and this is the origin of the need to performance.

Thanks in advance,

Jose

Did you check the Marvell DragonFly card http://www.marvell.com/storage/dragonfly/ The NVCACHE card can be used as a PCIe SSD adapter and can have up to 1.5TB of SSD storage attached.
