3.8.2 IBM TotalStorage DS4000 FC2-133 Dual Port Host Bus Adapter

The IBM TotalStorage DS4000 FC2-133 Dual Port Host Bus Adapter shares the
same specifications as the The IBM TotalStorage DS4000 FC2-133 Host Bus
Adapter except that it supports two Fibre Channel port attachments instead of
one. It is based on the Based on the Qlogic QLA2342 Fibre Channel HBA.

3.8.3 IBM TotalStorage SMB Host Bus Adapter (QLA200) 13N1873

This host bus adapter is based on the Qlogic QLA200. It includes a single fibre
channel 2 Gbps port supporting 2Gbps operations. This HBA is similar to the
IBM TotalStorage DS4000 FC2-133 host bus adapter (QLA2340) with a reduced
feature set. ASIC is the same. The driver for the IBM TotalStorage DS4000 host
bus adapter and the IBM TotalStorage SMB host bus adapter are the same. The
same failover driver can be used also for both adapters. Most of the functionality
is reduced by firmware but also hardware is different. This adapter uses less
memory then the QLA2340.
