You can create pools and file systems, but don't try to move any data larger
than 1gig over to the pool, as the machine will kernel panic, and go into a
state of constant reboots until you remove the card and/or the disks
connected to it.

Oh, I wonder when they broke the driver then. It was okay for me ages ago...I last used it on a box with an ON version before 2008.05 though.

I'm looking for PCI-E x1 SATA HBAs - any suggestions on ones that
would work out of the box with OpenIndiana and related distros? I've
been tracking chipsets as they come out for other things, but not
storage.

I hope to repurpose my current desktop as a file server and general
purpose server in a home hobbyist setting. Are there any other options
besides x8 PCI-E HBAs out there? I'm not sure what current Silicon
Image controllers work.


What's wrong with SIL3124 controllers?
