Then you may as well not recommend any board to anyone, because few manufacturers of relatively inexpensive boards have QC that high or an in the field failure rate that low, not matter whose control IC they mount on the PCB. Margins on such products are razor thin, thus these manufacturers cut corners where they can. Some cut corners more sharply, such as the in the case where 2/5 boards demonstrated the flaw and 3 didn't. This directly points to a QC problem, not an IC design flaw in the 3132. -- Stan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
