I realize I am ignoring the most interesting bits of your post, but I recen= tly=20 found indications that the HighPoint driver in FreeBSD supports port=20 multipliers. I found someone claiming that it is supported on a mailinglist= =2E=20 Checking HighPoint does list multiplier support as an "official" card featu= re=20 for those cards that support it, and they are maintaining FreeBSD has a=20 supported platform AFAIK. I sent a request to them to confirm whether this= =20 was indeed the case, but haven't received a response (yet?). Since you mention you're on a budget, I thought I'd mention this since, ri= ght=20 now, the most likely future path for me will be either HighPoint if I can=20 confirm multiplier support, or future FreeBSD releases given that multiplie= r=20 support seems to be on the way in for various controllers. =2D-=20 / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller <peter.schuller@infidyne.com>' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to getpgpkey@scode.org E-Mail: peter.schuller@infidyne.com Web: http://www.scode.org --nextPart16988886.SpBpzAnUjj Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEABECAAYFAkiZ3e8ACgkQDNor2+l1i30T+wCfVMIs4YlYDxcnw2zhM3/HEFLR nGkAoMjTCSTDOUYVmDS3wHOnVBmdKtpp =Qcom -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart16988886.SpBpzAnUjj--
