I notice that the latest price list from Sun lists the IPI controller
as a separate item. Previously you had to buy a whole IPI subsystem.
Has anyone tried to mix and match 3rd party IPI disks with this
controller, either for economy or better performance? The rumor I hear
is that Sun uses the SABER drive which is rated 3MB/Sec, and doesn't
buy much over the best SMD and SCSI subsystems that are out.
