Regardless, Marvell no longer offers the 9123. Any vendor offering cards based on it is probably using chips bought as surplus or for recycling. I spent some time going through the past news about various motherboard vendors delaying new products because of the PATA issue. According to the Marvell PR there seems to be no issue with the SATA side of the chip. Other than that (and the possible PCIe x1 scaling issue with SATA III) there should be no problem with the card itself. However, the card does not work in OpenSolaris yet because of: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6967746 v. ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Exactly how does build 105 translate to Solaris 10 10/08? My current There is no easy/obvious mapping of Solaris Nevada builds to Solaris 10 update releases. Solaris Nevada started as a branch of S10 after it was released and is the place where new features (RFEs) are developed. For a bug fix or RFE to end up in Solaris 10 update release it needs to match certain criteria. Basically, only those CRs which are found necessary (and this applies to both bugs and features) are backported to S10uX. v. ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
