Sorry to continue more OT stuff, but:
What FC host adapters are working well in FreeBSD?
I just found an Adaptec model used for very cheap. It's actually possible
that Fiber Channel could be cheaper than Ultra160 if you build your own
enclosure with Cinonic cards, buy clearance 1 GHz drives, and are lucky
enough to find a very cheap used host adapter. I'm not sure this is a good
thing, since it doesn't seem like Fiber Channel is easy to set up
reliably....
