One of "those" days here, sorry. The last RAID controller I used under FreeBSD was a compaq 2i which showed up as /dev/ida0 and (IIRC) the RAID was /dev/idad0 (so idad0s1a, idad0s1b, and so on). The disks were all SCSI, but since none of them were plugged into either of the (more normal) SCSI controllers there were no /dev/daN at all. -- --
