I sent this off-list, but it would be better here.

It's probably a Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCI Adapter, and you 
should be OK with FreeBSD 5.2.1

I gather this driver appeared with 5.1 so earlier releases will not 
support it.

Out of interest, the first half-dozen results when you google for 
*FreeBSD HP Compaq d530C/P2* reveal this.
