I am in the early stages of building a new machine to act as a file/web server newsgroup leacher etc. I know I want to add a raid card and was looking @ the PROMISE SATAII150 TX4 PCI SATA Controller Card. I am running 4.10 currently with a TX2 card but looking in the hardware notes I see only one promise card even listed for 5.4? Has all support been dropped from FreeBSD for promise cards? Also looking at an ASUS P4P800S-X anyone know if the sound(ADI AD1888 SoundMAX) and NIC(Realtek RTL8101L) work in 5.4? I may consider 6.x-Beta if I can get the on board stuff working. If none of the above are do-able I am open to suggestions as far as RAID & NIC cards go. I would like to do RAID0+1, and if I have to buy a separate NIC I would like it to be a Gigabit card. Thanks in advance! - -- MICROSOFT - a Millisecond late and a Gigabuck short Ronny Hippler || Spartanburg SC http://www.ronnyhippler.com/ || ftp://ftp.vr5.dyndns.org:2112/ For PGP key email with "PGPKey" in the subject -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDTdLeN6qJSxoonroRArTXAKCuc15lF1S4zdRelhsKaTIR34XAHgCgskYt WP0vV/f5t+FxCu5xhQwV75E= =UyJD -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
