Do you not suggest the use of Highpoint's 404 card? I understand that the low-end Promise and Highpoint controllers use the system CPU for a lot of their functionality, like a Winmodem, but, I was under the impression that the better models didn't do this.

Although they're higher priced than the hpt/promise hacks, they actually work like you'd expect and they're still dirt cheap by scsi standards. -- ________________________________________________________________________ |David McNett |To ensure privacy and data integrity this message has| |nugget@slacker.com|been encrypted using dual rounds of ROT-13 encryption| |Austin, TX USA |PGP/GPG DH 0xE43C5FC3 http://www.slacker.com/~nugget/| To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
