Hello, On http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.2R/notes.html it says: "The ata(4) driver now has support for tagged queueing, which is enabled by the ATA_ENABLE_TAGS option. It also supports the ServerWorks ROSB4 ATA33 chipset, the CMD 648 ATA66 and CMD 649 ATA100 chipsets, and the Cyrix 5530. It also has support for ATA "pseudo" RAID controllers, including the Promise Fasttrak and HighPoint HPT370 controllers" What are "pseuo" RAID controllers? Is it that it can access the harddisks, but won't support RAID functionality or is it that the RAID functionality is controlled by the controller and no software or driver is needed for the RAID functionality?
