IIRC 6.5.20 is the last version to officially support any
"non-PCI"
machine.
As has been said, SGI decided to be
"different" and make the host
adapter 0 instead of 7).
Actually this is the right way. ID 0 has the highest
priority during
SCSI arbitration...
Indigo2 might look bad next to an Octane, but in many
things it will
trash or keep up with O2, so don't knock it yet.
Sure. The O2 has its very
speciffic features, but it isn't quite a speed
daemon. At least the R5k versions. The O2 has still better IO (Wide
SCSI, 100 MBit/s Ethernet) and with a bit of luck you can get a cheap
1600SW + O2 adapter...
Where are these $100 Octanes? I want one!
