On the main page of the Highpoint Technologies website (www.highpoint-tech.com), they claim that the "FreeBSD Operating System Includes Support for HPT370 Controllers... Versions 4.1 and Later," which is their RAID + ultra ATA 100 controller chip included on several motherboards (like the Abit 133BX-RAID). However, I can't find any claim on the FreeBSD website supporting this. Does FreeBSD 4.1 support this HPT370 RAID + UltraATA 100 controller? If it does, does it support all or only part of its capabilities (RAID support or UltraATA 100 support or both)? Is this installed automatically during FreeBSD installation (i.e. autodetected by FreeBSD setup) or does something special have to be done. And lastly, is there anywhere online that I can look to find out more information about this whole topic? Thanks once again for your help.
