I recently got a DPT too for a production system but my needs were not as
critical.  I use a SYM53C875 for the system disk and the DPT with 2
mirrored drives for data.  I can do some experimentation during off hours
with this system.

I would like to see the DPT stabilize such that large arrays could be used
reliably so I'll try and test patches against 2.2.6, after I work out a
budget to get more drives.

Regards,


Mike
