You are not using any SATA drives or have any SATA adapters correct.
I haven't tried using vinum with my patch set. That might be a problem.
I'm not sure if anyone has tried vinum with my patch set most people use
ata-raid if anything at all.
I'm not sure if I'll have time today to setup vinum to test with. If you
are not using SATA or ata-raid you will only see some minimal advantages
with this patch set.
Thanks,
Doug A.
