Hi Toby, My understanding on the subject of SATA firmware reliability vs. FC/SCSI is that its mostly related to SATA firmware being a lot younger. ... Its probably unfair to expect defect rates out of SATA firmware equivalent to firmware that's been around for a long time...particularly with the price pressures on SATA. SAS may suffer the same issue, though they seem to have 1,000,000 MTBF ratings like their traditional FC/SCSI counterparts.
Jason, Thanks for the great answer. --Toby _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
