Iīm looking for a sata raid controller, and I found this one http://tinyurl.com/3kovo* *It seems that Linux have support for it, anyone know if freebsd 5.3 have ? I took a quick look at http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.3R/hardware-i386.html#DISK . And there isnīt listed anything about this card. -- Henrik N. Jensen <hnj@uihost.net>
