The latest smartpqi drivers for FreeBSD can also be found here. https://sto= rage.microsemi.com/en-us/speed/raid/aac/unix/smartpqi_freebsd_v1.0.3-2323_t= gz.php These will work with the HPE Gen10 Smart Array controllers as well.

Well, so I have experience with the P4xx series on FreeBSD, I have installe= d it successfully on Gen6, Gen8, and Gen10. The Linux Driver for RHEL from HPE suggest that the HPE E208 is a newer HPE= Microsemi Controller, using the smartpqi drivers. FreeBSD has support for the smartpqi driver https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man= .cgi?query=3Dsmartpqi&sektion=3D4&manpath=3Dfreebsd-release-ports So I would say the HPE E208 should work under FreeBSD 12. >=20 > Thanks! >=20 > Julien >=20 >=20 Regards, Toshaan. -- -- Toshaan Bharvani +32-(0)476-66.70.55 toshaan@vantosh.com @toshywoshy -- _______________________________________________ freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman= /listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hardware-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
