Ending Support for Certain Storage Devices by SAM-QFS
Support has ended for certain older storage devices by SAM-QFS at the 5.4 release. They are all older storage devices, in most cases end-of-life'd themselves by their respective vendor. SAM-QFS will drop support for the following storage devices at the next release, and will remove code to support them with the next release after that. This should provide customers time to migrate to newer storage hardware as needed.
