I assume you mean these type of interposer cards? e.g http://www.lsi.com/DistributionSystem/AssetDocument/SCG_LSISS9252_PB_082709.pdf Based on my experiences, they generally go to VARs or OEMs e.g. Dell, HP. I do recall seeing some older gens on a 2950 that passed my way.. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
