I was thinking scsi bus analyzer. The mpt driver would need to issue SCSI-SPI Device Page 0 and 1 to set the negotiated parmeters for each of the hidden physical drive in the raid volume. Bios is handling off to the driver in asyn narrow speeds, so the driver needs to send these config pages. I'm working on the mpt Linux driver, however Matthew Jacob would know best about what config page updates are occuring in this bsd driver.
