Date: Sun, 10 Dec 95 15:26:13 GMT Organization: Enterprise PLC Lines: 23 Message-ID: <4aeu2g$ip5@news.enterprise.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: starship.enterprise.net X-Newsreader: News Xpress Version 1.0 Beta #4 Is anyone aware of the existence of any PCI bus based RAID5 controllers that have drivers available for BSDI 2.X? We would be particularly interested in hearing from anyone who has successfully implemented a Mylex PCI based RAID5 solution on this platform. Considering the increasing importance of RAID generally, and its wide implementation on other UNIX platforms notably SUN - the lack of a bus based BSDI solution is somewhat surprising to say the least. We are of course fully aware of the non O/S specific SCSI translation solutions, but these are really in no way comparable to a properly implemented dedicated bus based solution. Thanks in advance. -- Adrian. ___________________________________ Adrian Cooper | apc@enterprise.net Enterprise PLC | http://www.enterprise.net Leading Internet Services in the British Isles.
