[OpenIndiana-discuss] General ZFS questions (Michelle Knight)

[Robin Axelsson]

Since you're not after that many ports perhaps an LSI1064e based card 
would be a better choice. There are a lot of different OEM manufacturers 
that produce these cards, for example Intel, Cisco, Dell (Perc), 
Fujitsu-Siemens, HP, IBM (ServeRaid) etc.

If an LSI1034E-R is too expensive, perhaps Cisco has one 4-port model. 
You could also look at S26361-F3257-L4 or S26361-F3257-L4 which is from 
Fujitsu. If I were to buy a new HBA I would go for an Intel SASUC8I. 
Also note that you will need an SFF-8087 -> SATA fanout cable.
