|   Though I have tested Dell PE750 with SATA RAID1(without SCSI) using
| FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p8, the installer could not find the disk :-(.

Scott added the PCI device ID's to -current atleast.  I have a bunch of 
the CERC SATA cards around here but haven't recently tested them recently.
We went with my SATA/ata-raid patches and skipped the CERC card.
