They both are a real hardware RAID card, and not a "half" hardware RAID card in which "half" hardware RAID card use your CPU to calculate the XOR calculations, and this could burdened your CPU. Anyway you can look ATA RAID Cards review at http://www.anandtech.com/storage/showdoc.html?i=1491 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
