Adaptec 81605ZQ MaxCache Plus

[kdaws_dean]

Hi there
In the MaxView Software are you seeing the options for tiering ?

[kdaws_dean]

I am using a Adaptec RAID 8885Q with maxCache Plus but there is no option to use the tiered storage within the system !
How do we use this option with open-e ?

tiering is not supported at this time.

Then why does your PR material say:

Support for Adaptec Series 8 (maxCache Plus caching technology)

If you don't support tiering then you don't support maxCache Plus. maxCache Plus is tiering, anything else is just maxCache.

[Gr-R]

MaxCache plus can be either caching or tiering solution. We do support the caching option.

This is not so the PLUS for for the tiering where as you only support MaxCache 3.0 which is standard read write !
Is there any ETA for tiering or are you even going to support it ?

[kdaws_dean]

Any chance of a reply regarding this as I did mention tiering in my opening post !

I would like to know if it is going to be supported and if so an ETA regarding it.
