How does the performance of a scsi host adaptor with built in caching hardware
compare to the performance of a software caching program or OS caching?
Which is faster? Is onboard drive caching even faster? Any definitive research
on this subject? Is there a source on the net for a scsi perpiheral benchmark
program/source code? Thanks
