No. The difference between the 70xx and 75xx cards is that the 75xx have
faster RAID-5.

At any rate, if you try an 85xx, let me know how it works. I've used a
7508 in the past and been quite pleased with it, except that the card
itself seems unable to process more than about 120 I/Os per second, no
matter how many drives you have and how fast the drives are.

(This was pretty disappointing given that I had eight drives striped as a
RAID-0 and each drive was capable of about 90 I/Os per second alone.)
