I am very happy with both the Smart-2/DH and -2/P running on Novell 3.12 in a variety of non HP/Compaq boxen; the ACU runs properly on all of them. Regards, Michael Grigoni Cybertheque Museum |

Look at it from the opposite point of view: With SmartArray controllers, you can generally upgrade from 1 to another, and your disks still work. Try doing that with a NetRaid controller. I havent done that with NetRAID controllers (as i dont have any of those ****ty old HP boxes), but i have done it loads of times with IBM ServeRAID controllers. You just have to know what yer doing. - LC |
