Are there any known problems with LSI Logic MegaRAID SATA 150-4 and FreeBSD 6.0 around? Is it easy to attach a 4th disk later and enlarge the 3disk RAID-5 setup I plan to start with? Is there a FreeBSD tool around for managing the controler like mlxcontrol for Mylex controlers? If not, can I manage it through it's BIOS interface or am I stuck to MS-DOS or worse MS-Windows? Anything else I should know about this controller before I'm gioing to buy it? Greetings Oliver
