I'm not sure if this helps, but I've been working with FreeBSD on dell hardware of all kinds for many years and have not had a problem with a PERC controller. The easiest way to see is boot from the install CD and start a standard install. It will error if it doesn't recognize any drives. -----Original Message----- From: Barnaby Scott <bds@waywood.co.uk> Date: Fri, 09 Mar 2007 13:48:58 To:freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: PERC 3/DC RAID controller I have recently aquired a server which is a Dell PowerEdge 4600 with a PERC 3/DC RAID controller. I was just about to start intalling FreeBSD 6.2, but noticed the hardware notes mentions practically every other Dell RAID controller except this one! Does anyone know if it will work? I have a horrible suspicion I will be back with plenty of questions in the coming weeks as I wrestle with this, my first ever server, and my first 'for real' use of FreeBSD! However I am reading all I can, especially the FreeBSD handbook.
