I'd get the 5805. Larry does not give that kind of advise lightly and with your complex systems where performance is important, it's best to take the advice of a non-interested party. ( after all, Larry helped write the cert test the other guy had to take and pass )

For a single 5886 I would go 5805 even though they have batteries because they are a LOT cheaper and you won't have any performance issues either. The 5913s have no batteries and are wonderful if you want SSDs in there. You need any two PCIe slots available. They are IOPless so it doesn't matter where they are. If all you have are PCI-X slots that changes everything. - Larry "DrFranken" Bolhuis www.frankeni.com www.iDevCloud.com www.iInTheCloud.com On 9/6/2013 9:31 AM, rob@xxxxxxxxx wrote:
