I have never seen a non-RAID SAS controller in my life: notice I'm not
saying mean they don't exist, but everyone I used was RAID capable.
That said, I'm using:
Adaptec SAS RAID 3405
aac0@pci0:2:14:0: class=0x010400 card=0x02bb9005 chip=0x02859005
rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Adaptec Inc'
device = 'AAC-RAID RAID Controller'
class = mass storage
subclass = RAID
Adaptec SAS RAID 3805
aac0@pci0:4:14:0: class=0x010400 card=0x02bc9005 chip=0x02859005
rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Adaptec Inc'
device = 'AAC-RAID RAID Controller'
class = mass storage
subclass = RAID
Intel SRCSASJV
mfi0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x010400 card=0x10068086 chip=0x00601000
rev=0x04 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'LSI Logic (Was: Symbios Logic, NCR)'
device = 'SAS1078 PCI-X Fusion-MPT SAS'
class = mass storage
subclass = RAID
I've also used a couple of HPs in the past: I think it was a P400, but I
don't have access to those machines any more.
Never had any problems with any of these; only note: I could not get
access to HP management via FreeBSD, but things might possibly have
changed since then.
N.B. I'm using 7.x, but I see no reason why 8.1 should be more troublesome.
