I use the AOC-SAT2-MV8 in a ordinary PCI slot. The PCI slot maxes at 150MB/sec or so. That is the fastest you will get. That card works very good with Solaris/OpenSolaris. Detects automatically, etc. Ive heard though that it does not work with hot swapping discs - avoid this.
However, In a PCI-X it will max at 1GB/sec. I have been thinkin about buying a server mobo (they have PCI-X) to get 1GB/sec. Or should I buy a PCIe card instead? I dont know. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
