Nicole, Sounds like a bunch of fear, uncertainty, and doubt. I've been using the 3ware Escalade 6200 on my desktop since February without a hitch. I appreciate the stability of the FreeBSD kernel support (twe) and the 3DM Disk Management Utility has been sufficient for my needs. Even the 3ware corparate support site pointed to Mike Smith's pages for bsd 3DM binaries. http://people.freebsd.org/~msmith/RAID/ http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/152/2000/10/50/4580097/ Hodge Podge writes: > > > Greetings all > My boss just called rackable systems abt their 3U storage array which uses > the 3ware IDE Raid card.
