RE: iSCSI HBA availability

It's not the same card, but it looks pretty close to it.  Its just a regular
PCI card, which I don't have the feature code, but the CCIN number is 1986
for the one we used.  If you are connecting to a Blade, you would use the
QLOGIC daughter card on the blade.

Pete what about the HBA card for the PC?

Or is it the same card?
