[OmniOS-discuss] areca or lsi

[David Bomba]

We use ARECA 1882 series cards in all our OmniOS storage servers.

We moved from a Linux/GlusterFS environment to OmniOS/Comstar and our
benchmarks have been very similar between the two using these controllers.

I highly recommend them, they have been very reliable for us, and
performance has been exceptional.
