I've used= =20 both, under both 6- and 7- (although just right now my 31xx controllers are= =20 all in my Solaris boxes). It's fine; the usual kind of throughput -- I get= =20 around 80MB/s off of the four disks on my 3124 in another machine under 6.3= =2E=20 Hotswap is a little tricky, at it requires an atacontrol detach and attach.
