Thanks.  I already have an infrastructure built around aaccli, automated
alerts, and training, etc.  I am sort of wedded to PERC/aac/adaptec/etc.

I just want to make sure that the 2820sa is just as nicely working and
supported as any other PERC/aac, and that raid-6 support is accessed and
used through the BIOS just like any other raid configuration on any other
aac card...

Can someone confirm that ?
