Hi all,

our 6.1.4 server has currently 3 SCSI cards for our 5 LTO1 drives and another two ones for the staging devices. Now we are planning the new hardware, and I thought of a server with one FC card and one SCSI/FC bridge with 5 SCSI cchannels. The reason for this is:

- the new server does not need lots of PCI-X slots
- perhaps this will be the beginning of a SAN ;-)

Can you recommend one vendor or model of such a bridge?

Olaf
