I believe that the folks are 3ware are working on 1. Write to them and ask. I had a brief talk to them recently and they were very informative and helpfull. I believe it has to do with higher complexity of implementation. Even just Raid 0, 1 and 10 are a very good start for IDE. SCSI raid and drives is just too expensive for small servers. francisco Moderator of the Corporate BSD list http://www.egroups.com/group/BSD_Corporate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
