IBM owns Mylex and FreeBSD has driver for their RAID cards, so it's the logical replacement.. in hopes the Mylex cards are absolutely compliant with IBM PC-server offerings. But IBM announced plans for shutting down the Mylex division, so I'm not sure what will be the best replacement wrt. compliance and performance. -- Vallo Kallaste kalts@estpak.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
