Would a 32GB-SanDisk Extreme® CompactFlash® Card 60MB/s (SDCFX-032G-P61) or a 16GB-SanDisk Extreme® CompactFlash® Card 60MB/s (SDCFX-016G-A61) qualify as a decent card, or is there other an other brand I should look for? Are 32GB "supported" at this point? How about UDMA 400x? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
