Has anyone taken Driver Bender for a serious trip? Is it considered "safe" for production use yet? Is WHS2011 finally where it should have been from the start?

I have done pci passthrough with Xen, so it should be possible.

ASCII code 7?

Nah...not that big a bummer really. Got it very cheap, so it was a calculated risk :) Nevertheless, it would be fun if I got it to work! I've been through the BIOS many many times, so I'm pretty sure that everything is ok there. I've also tried to reset and re-flash the BIOS multiple times. I...

Yes, the controller is detected, but it cannot be started. It fails with a warning that the card cannot be reset. Disks attached to the controller is not detected, and is also not listed at startup (BIOS/POST screen).

Hi! I bought an OEM Tyan S2915-E (from an XW9400 workstation) off eBay, accepting the risks as it was sold "as is". The board works perfectly, except I can't get the onboard LSI 1068E adapter to work. I've tried re-flashing it with new firmware/BIOS (sasflash), but all attempts fail with the...

I must admit that I have not read this entire thread, but I was wondering if I would encounter any problems with a raid-z with 2 512b sector drives and 3 4k sector drives (5 drives total)?

Thanks, I know about the *Solaris *BSD alternatives, but I want to use Linux. I'll keep an eye on the progress. Might go for Amahi anyway.

Does anyone have experience with the ZFS Linux port (http://kqstor.com/)? Is it "production ready"?

No, but the media capabilities was mentioned by others, so I felt it was relevant information. It would certainly affect my decision.

Cinavia is a watermark within the audio track of movies. The watermark is detected by Cinavia enabled players (such as the PS3), and will mute the audio or stop the playback when the watermark is detected and the playback medium is not "authorized" (your rips). There's a lot of discussions over...

Except the PS3 is infected with Cinavia, so you can't actually play back your rips (with Cinavia) on it... (yeah, I'm aware of the "workarounds")

Yup... Sandy Bridge doesn't handle 23.976 fps (aka true 24p), and never will.

What on earth are you guys doing with your IONs since they are so shitty? Mine works perfectly well... :)

Well, if you don't care about correct 24p playback, then it should be a nice upgrade for you.

What problems are you experiencing? I'm using an ION and Celeron ULV combination (Zotac ION-ITX-P) without problems. Don't have neither a Clarkdale nor Sandy Bridge to compare with, and don't intend to get one due to the 24p bug.

Wow! I want that cabinet!

Oracle/Sun merger approved by the European Commission: http://bit.ly/6Jubpi

I asked about a Solaris driver for the 1300ix-16 some time ago, and yesterday, I got an email that said to test a new Solaris driver. Since I don't have the card, I can't test it. But I was hoping that someone that does had tested it.

Anyone tested the ARC-1300ix-16 with the new Solaris driver (I assume it's a beta version)?

That case is, as far as I can see, exactly the same case as the Norco RPC-4220.

Yes, and unless something unforeseen happens, Sun = Oracle.

I guess you mean unless Oracle changes the license for ZFS. And since BTRFS also is a Oracle initiated project, it should be interesting to see how things play out...

I'm just a newbie, but I believe several Asus motherboards have this feature, but it requires an extra Asus PIKE sata/sas-controller to utilize the extra 8 ports.
