Re: fibre channel hardware question

Be aware that the entire switch has to run at the slowest speed of the connected devices.  For example I have several XServes and an XRaid that can connect at 2G but my Tape library runs at only 1Gb so I had to set all devices to run at 1Gb.

For this money you can buy 2, so if one fry you can still work on the second one.

I'm achieving 200 MB reads and 97 MB writes on XServe XEON and XServe RAID configured with RAID5 with that switch .
