I don't fault the LSI card. The 320-2X is by far one of the fastest
cards I've ever used, and the most stable under FreeBSD. The only
time I've had issue with the LSI cards is with dell-branded disk
enclosures.
As for using U320 vs. SAS, I guess the decision would be based on
cost. The last systems I bought with big disks were over a year ago,
so I don't know the pricing anymore.
