hey Mark,

Im using CURRENT on 2650 w/o any problems, aac works fine.
There was some problem with ACPI (which lead to hang) on some PE series 
box'es but now I suppose its okay.

I've been running FBSD 4.7 since Apr 2003 on a PE2650 with the PERC3-DI

I haven't had any problem setting it up.

Just make sure you leave the device aac option in your kernel config.
