Unfortunately, the mainboard has only PATA headers. I do have three PCI slots though, so I was looking at a PCI SATA controller card that will get along with FreeBSD without a fuss. Nothing fancy, just something inexpensive that I can plug a few SATA drives into. Then I'll create a graid3 with them, or mess around with ZFS. Anyone using something worth a recommendation? Thanks! -Modulok-
