Dear list,
could someone suggest me a 3ware Raid controller supported under openfiler ?
I saw that both 3ware 8506-4LP and 9500S-4LP are supported but I am
searching for someone that could tell me his/her "real" experience.
Regards
I have used both... and can confirm that the 9500 is considerably
faster than the 8500 series.
If you are simply using this storage for backup... then the 8506 is
great. However, if it is going to be a primary fileserver, I would
recommend paying the extra for the 9500.
Please note that I have NOT used either under openfiler... just under
Linux in general. I know that under Knoppix, it will load the 3w-xxxx
driver for the 9500, when in reality it needs the 3w-9xxx driver.
