Date: 20 Jun 97 04:37:53 GMT Organization: University of California, Irvine Lines: 11 Message-ID: <dkleinh.866781473@isotope.ps.uci.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: isotope.ps.uci.edu Summary: Looking for info on Adaptec 3985 RAID controller w/FreeBSD Keywords: FreeBSD, RAID, Adaptec 3985 X-Newsreader: NN version 6.5.0 #6 (NOV) Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:43198 I see that FreeBSD (and Linux) support the Adaptec 3985 RAID controller. Is anyone using this with either of these OSes ? How is it ? We currently have a commercial server which is very expensive and I'm considring alternatives. I did fiddle with the concatinated disc support in FreeBSD and the multiple devices in Linux, but I would think a RAID specific controller would have faster I/O throughput. I appreciate any info. Thanks, Dirk
