[OmniOS-discuss] areca or lsi

[Tobias Oetiker]

Folks,

We are specing a new omnios server box ... and were just told by
our vendor, that LSI HBAs were much slower (50%) than Areca Controllers
running in JBOD mode ... and that they would therefore recommend
Areca (we use areca for raid6 in linux boxes, but have never used it in JBOD
mode with illumos, yet).

Which controller would you choose for a new system ?

cheers
tobi
