Suffice it to say, everyone on this list knows their name, and they're not exactly a small VAR. Your assumptions are unfounded. I may have missed it, but did you say why you ordered a 320-type controller? The i420 is what you need. They are great (unless you want JBOD, then they suck). It's true: DL360/380 is nothing special. But nowadays, they have so much performance, they solve maybe 90% of what you need in a datacenter…. Sorry to bring your rant back on topic ;-) _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
