Physical devices which are not claimed by a logical device are presented on SCSI channels which match the physical channels on the controller. Does this mean that I can attach a SCSI drive to the RAID controller, but not configure it as part of an array, and then access it as a normal drive? If so, can I also boot from it? - JD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
