Depends what you want to do with it. My experience is with my own desktop machines for RAID-0 or RAID-1, and for those the Promise cards (or equivalent onboard chips in my case) have never given me a problem beyond having to wait a few days for a bit of tweaking in -CURRENT once in a great while. These particular Promise chips don't do "real hard raid" AFAIK, but thanks to Soeren Schmidt they work fine in FreeBSD. Jud
