RAID Controller Features
Different controllers have different features. If you have more than one
controller attached to your system, you may notice that the tasks displayed on
the controller’s Information/Configuration subtab are different for each
controller.
Controllers may also have differences in their read, write, and cache policies
as well as how they handle hot spares. You should be aware of these
differences when creating virtual disks and assigning hot spares.
