It's nice to know that others are having the same trouble. Do you know by chance who works on the RAID drivers? I was thinking that maybe there is some chance that they have a working driver kicking around that they haven't committed yet....(don't pinch me too hard, I might wake up and smell the burning circuit boards...>;-) Thanks again.
