This driver operates on the same hardware as the qla2x00t target driver, but, comparing to version 1.0.1.1 of it, has a notable advantage: support of 24xx (4Gbps) and 25xx (8Gbps) series of QLogic adapters. From other side, qla2x00t is simpler, smaller and much better tested on 22xx and 23xx, hence perform more - reliable and, thus, is recommended for these adapters. (Support of 24xx (4Gbps) and 25xx (8Gbps) - series of QLogic adapters was added in version 2.0.0 of qla2x00t.)
+ reliable and, thus, is recommended for these adapters. + +Since support of 24xx (4Gbps) and 25xx (8Gbps) series of QLogic adapters was added in version 2.0.0 + of qla2x00t, users are encouraged to switch from this driver to qla2x00t.
