Generally speaking, the LSI-Logic cards are faster, at least for 2Gb, in terms of IOPS.
However, the LSI-Logic firmware is less capable of coping with complicated topologies and the mpt(4) driver is less mature than isp(4). Another thing to keep in mind is that for new cards (as opposed to 'EBay' cards) that LSI is half the port cost of QLogic. On 3/8/07, Claus Guttesen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I've tried qlogic's 2310 and haven't had any issue with those. I did recompile the kernel and included ispfw which is commented out by default in GENERIC. I don't know whether they perform better or worse than hba's from LSI. regards Claus _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
