No, for a few reasons: 1. I read somewhere on the interwebs that doing so would brick the card 2. I don't have access to a DOS/Windows machine 3. Dodgy hardware isn't what you want when dealing with large databases If it's not just a firmware issue it wouldn't surprise me if you could just link a couple of pins/contacts/etc on the card and gain the LSIs capabilities, but it's not an idea I'd entertain outside of personal use... -- -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
