Re: [zfs-discuss] Re: New zfs pr0n server :)))
Sorry, I'm fairly new to Solaris... I'm not sure if it's using the ata driver or sata driver. Here are my current disks (0,1, and 2 are the sata disks): AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS: 0. c0d0 /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 1. c0d1 /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 2. c1d0 /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 3. c2d0 /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 Specify disk (enter its number): Since they are labeled as "pci-ide" is it safe to assume they are using the ide/ata driver? If so, is there a performance gain when using a sata driver?

XIU, I'm currently using that card with my modest three-disk raid-z home server and it works great! Solaris 10 had native support for it so no need to mess with drivers.

What kind of performance are you getting with ZFS from Sil3114 card? Can you try bonnie or dd if=file of=/dev/null... on it?
