This problem has to do with how the enclosure reports its slots to the HBA's Firmware. It sounds like you've researched it, so you probably know that. If it's possible for you to move your HBA to a Windows or Linux system, or if you can boot up in UEFI, I can give you access to a tool that will allow you to change the mapping mode on your HBA. There is a FreeBSD version, but it's not yet in a licensable form, and you will need to sign an EULA to use the tool.
