If not, I'm going to give it a try unless someone is sure it=20 > won't work. I talked to someone off-list who said they are somehow reversed and won't fit into normal PCI-E slots. In addition he pointed out that most non-server boards don't have PCI-e 8x slots even if that weren't the case. On the plus side, he said he booted a FreeBSD 7 CD on a machine with a SA8204ELP card, and it did detect the drives (but not RAID volumes), indicating it should work as a plain controller. This is probably what I'll be going for. Previously I had not been able to get any information on whether it would work. --=20 / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller <peter.schuller@infidyne.com>' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to getpgpkey@scode.org E-Mail: peter.schuller@infidyne.com Web: http://www.scode.org --wRRV7LY7NUeQGEoC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAki5WeUACgkQDNor2+l1i32dCgCdHTTSf3UOXoPFSanuvzi+sJzF JuAAnirv0bN8pVK0dN2jN1fopAbmtRsa =BkxW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --wRRV7LY7NUeQGEoC--
