The drivers for the SmartRAID V are not yet ready, and they won't be
in the immediate future.  I believe that DPT has some interim driver
available, but I haven't seen a lot of enthusiasm for it.  Check out
their web site.

There's no way you can use a Linux driver on FreeBSD (well, you can
take the sources and adapt them, but that's a lot of work).
