Is it better to use the 6-CURRENT driver on 5-STABLE, or the 3ware 9.2 Software Release for 5.x. I see that there have been some changes between the two. Are they improvements, applicable to 5-STABLE as well, or just changes required for 6-CURRENT? It looks like the changes are probably optimisations, but I'm not sure whether that applies for 5-STABLE as well. I've tried both, and am currently using the 6-CURRENT driver on 2 of our 4 5-STABLE boxes without any obvious ill effects. Should I stop? In either case, would it be possible to commit one or the other quite soon after 5.4-RELEASE? (I'm assuming they can't go into 5.4-RELEASE). Thanks, Jason.
