We know about the Adaptec ANA6910FX and Allied AT-2560 too, now.
We've just ordered the Allied one (with the understanding we 
can return it if we can't drive it with FreeBSD), so we *may* 
need to try the IMC one.  FreeBSD FAQ 3.15 suggests the 'de' 
driver will do any 21140 chip-based card, so it looks feasible.

Regards,

Bob.
