NI-9860 vs NI-9862

Hi, I have contacted NI sales services but it's a great frustration as usual, so I will try to get some support here :)

 

Basically for a project I need 2 CAN ports and I decided to go with XNET and Compact DAQ. I have 2 solutions I try to choose from:

 

Solution 1 --> One 4-slot chassis with 2 NI-9862 modules (one port per module)

Solution 2 --> One 1-slot chassis with 1 NI-9860 module (this module has 2 ports)

 

I am confident that solution 1 will work well since I already had a project in the past with one 4-slot chassis (cDAQ-9174) and one NI-9862 module. But going with solution 2 will allow me to cut cost significantly. I just want to make sure it will be absolutely seamless and transparent for the software. Does anybody have experience with the NI-9860? Can it be considered as the equivalent of 2x NI-9862 as far as the software is concerned (LabVIEW driver) or does it remove some performance/flexibility/other?

 

Thanks!
