I am moving from a scsi raid disk spool to a sata raid disk spool solution, so the asr device is on the way out. I will use a 2940 (or similar) for the attached tape library. But I have many machines that use the asr device for hardware raid management. The motherboards have a small form factor pci connector socket[1] for the asr device to upgrade the onboard scsi controller to a hardware raid solution (the datacenter is full of these). Going forward, that hardware will no longer be used for spooling to tape. Thanks again for your help.
