megaraid driver on a PE2650

[Avery]

Rob,

Thanks for your help again. After updateing the PE2650 to the latest PERC3 DC firmware
and driver I am now getting closer to the speeds I should be at. I was running firmware
version 1.91 and am now running 196T. Boy it sure runs smoother now ;) , but its still
not where it should be. Things ran really smooth on Suse I just don't get why they are
not as good with fedora after updating everything. I can see/feel the performance
difference between the 2 distro's just not as much now with the latest firmware and
driver.
