(On three, cue the users..)

Ah, no. The 2105S is definitely not in the real RAID class. If it was reall=
y
all that good, other folks would be using it. For that matter, if it was an=
y
good, Tyan would be using it on the S4882 instead of the LSI 53c1030 mpt(4)
with PCI-X Ultra320-0 amr(4) ZCR.

Either way, I recall Scott saying not too long ago, "asr(4) needs fixed on
amd64. Can anyone step up to fix it?" and being greeted with a chorus of
crickets. In other words, there is a shortage of people with the time and/o=
r
resources to get this done, and I wouldn't expect to see any change in that
any time soon.
