[zfs-discuss] MPT questions

2009-10-08 Thread Frank Middleton
In an attempt to recycle some old PATA disks, we bought some really cheap PATA/SATA adapters, some of which actually work to the point where it is possible to boot from a ZFS installation (e.g., c1t2d0s0). Not all PATA disks work, just Seagates, it would seem, but not Maxstors. I wonder why?
