http://storusint.com/pdf/SCSI_vs_FC.pdf seems very helpful!

I have not surveyed the FC offerings for small servers, PCs, Laptops. While it might be SAN oriented, I see they are available in popular form factors:

FC hard drive price compare - Google Search

Seems a bit faster than the hottest SCSI, and maybe with simpler/cheaper controller, cabling, termination. Controller comes as a plug in or motherboard.

Since it fits into the SCSI configuration metaphor, it is not surprising that it inherits many configuration attributes from SCSI.

I wonder if FC has more latency and lower random performance than SCSI, with the serial access and optical encoding/decoding, not to mention higher contention if many/more devices are on a channel.

Re-using disks

I would like to know if I can move the disks from a V240 chassis into a V440 chassis to use the increased resources (CPU & Memory) to boost performance. I know you can move disks between V210/240 chassis's, but I'm not sure if this would work between 240s & 440s. Any help would be much appreciated. (4 Replies)

NAME
i2o_scsi - an I2O OS specific module that supports SCSA interface. DESCRIPTION
The i2o_scsi OSM module is a SCSI HBA driver that supports the SCSA interface. It supports both SCSI Adapter Class and SCSI Peripheral Class functions. It translates the SCSI packet coming down from the SCSA into an I2O SCSI Peripheral Class message, passes it along to the IOP which in turn passes it to the HDM (hardware specific module). It also uses SCSI Adapter Class functions to manage the SCSI adapter and SCSI bus. For each SCSI Adapter Class I2O device (a SCSI con- troller), it claims the SCSI Peripheral class devices which are attached to that port. The existing SCSI target drivers which use the SCSA interface should only work with i2o_scsi. This includes target drivers like sd, st and so on. FILES
