Hello James,

Yeah, I do have several of them (both 2530 and 2540).

2530 (SAS) - cables tend to pop-out sometimes when you are around
servers... then MPxIO does not work properly if you just hot-unplug
and hot-replug the sas cable... there is still 2TB LUN size limit
IIRC... other than that generally it is a good value

2540 (FC) - 2TB LUN size limit IIRC, other than that it is a good
value array
