It's harder for me to comment on the management apps since I never saw what was on the final CD. At the very minimum it should have a CLI tool and a Motif-based GUI for FreeBSD. If you're lucky, it will have a Java-based GUI for FreeBSD also. The only thing I don't like about the card is that you cannot hot-plug the drives.
