The NCR53C825 is supported by FreeBSD since at least 6 years. :)
(Was a NCR product at this time)

Anyway, the hardware list needs to be updated for newer chips (i.e. I
should have updated it).

At the moment and at least for RELENG4:

- The SYM driver supports all 53C8XX A and not-A chips and also the
  53C1010-33, 53C1010-66, 53C1010R, 53C1000 and 53C1000R
  Ultra3 controllers.

- The NCR driver supports all 53C8XX A and not-A chips, may-be excepted=20
  the 53C875A.
  (Adding the 53C875A chip description will make it support the chip).

For Ultra3 controllers under RELENG3, I would suggest to use an updated
SYM driver, as the sym-2.1.6 available from
http://people.freebsd.org/~groudier/
