I see on the supported hardware list (http://www.freebsd.org/releases/
6.2R/hardware-amd64.html) there are 4 LSI fibre channel cards
supported by the mpt(4) driver. However, over on LSI's web site
(http://www.lsi.com/storage_home/products_home/host_bus_adapters/
index.html) the fibre cards they are currently selling have rather
different looking part numbers.
Are the supported cards no longer made? Or did they just rename them?
Are there any other fibre channel cards supported on FreeBSD?
What card would one recommend to connect to an external RAID array
for running a fairly busy database (several million inserts/selects/
updates per day)?
Thanks!
