That is not the correct question to ask. I do not want to have to deal with a data corruption issue before I realize that I should not be using the 3Ware card under FreeBSD. The right question to ask is: do all the operational modes of the 3Ware card work properly under FreeBSD? At the moment, it appears that the answer is "no". Specifically, the RAID 5 configuration appears to result in data corruption with the current firmware. | but the driver is top notch in terms of speed and reliability In RAID 1/0 configuration, possibly. But I reamin to be convinced that your assertion carries over to the RAID 5 configuration.
