So you have tried and failed?

There are lists of devices here:

http://man.freebsd.org/mfi
http://man.freebsd.org/amr

but they are incomplete. FWIW, I've successfuly used IBM x3650 M3 with 
the controller which identifies itself as:

mfi0: <LSI MegaSAS Gen2> port 0x1000-0x10ff mem 
0x9f940000-0x9f943fff,0x9f900000-0x9f93ffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci1
mfi0: Megaraid SAS driver Ver 3.00
mfi0: 498 (boot + 3s/0x0020/info) - Firmware initialization started (PCI 
ID 0079/1000/03b2/1014)
mfi0: 499 (boot + 3s/0x0020/info) - Firmware version 2.0.03-0689
