I have 2 storage servers.
1 - SAS2 HBA and SAS2 backplane.
2 - SAS2 HBA and SAS1 backplane.
I'm presently copying files from #1 to #2 and was surprised to see 130mbs. I've never gotten that high copying files to server #1 (highest is barely 100mbs) but I would think the speed would be higher since it has an SAS2 backplane. Both HBAs are LSI 2005s, one is built into the MB and the other is an IBM 1015. Could it be the magic is all in the HBA and the backplane has nothing to do with it?
