https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/difference-between-53xx-and-4200/m-p/2481564#M882 Can someone explain what the significant difference is between the 3200 and 5302-64 controller cards? I can tell the 5302 is Ultra3 and the 3200 is Ultra2. Is the 3200 a 4 channel card and the 5302 is only a dual?
