- Does anyone have knowldege/opinions of the various merits of the
- Prestoserv card vs the new buffered SCSI/Ethernet card Sun came out
- with.
-
- Larry McVoy wrote a paper "Hardware support for high performance file
- systems" In it he concluded that the buffered SCSI card should be
- better than the Prestoserv card.
-
- Does anybody know if the buffered SCSI card that Sun is selling would
- match Larry McVoy's requirements?
