  are you sure that they are not SiI 3114 ? i had similar discussion

  and the 3112 the bad one.
 
 Yup.  Just checked the hotstamp on the chip: 3112.  Is it possible
 that some boards which used the 3112 chip were made and that those
 manufacturing problems have been since fixed?

it is possible that both - the hardware and FreeBSD support for it
improved to the point, when it makes no difference whether it is 3112 or
3114... (but i am not sure about it)

 As far as the Sil3112 chips go, I'm using them everywhere and they
 work quite well.  Sometimes less is more.

Re: postfix or qmail?

2005-06-20 Thread Vladimir Konrad
 hi,
 I've a simple question, postfix or qmail? :), I've a fair review for both 
 from 
 some linux admins, now, I want to know fbsd's community opinion :). The mail 
 server (now running sendmail) serves ~300 accounts.
I have very good experience with Postfix + Courier IMAP combination.
I went for Postfix because it is actively developed...

 Other thing (perhaps, the one that I interest more your opinion), do anyone 
 know why MacOS X Server is using postfix instead of qmail? (i mean, the 
 latter is far more popular, right?),
Not sure. Both are simmilar design in principle (multiple daemons).

Looking for 4 port SATA (non RAID) controller

2005-06-07 Thread Vladimir Konrad
I am looking for a 4 port SATA PCI card which works with FreeBSD (5.4).
I am planning to do the RAID in software.

Do Promise TX4 cards work?

Also I was considering getting two Adaptec 1210SA cards (cheaper than
getting the 4 port RAID from them). Does this one work?

I searched the archives and googled, but could not find confirmation on
this.

I would consider any other 4 port non RAID SATA PCI cards which can be
bought in UK and work well in FreeBSD.
