I have a Thunder K8WE/S2895 that is running 6.1/i386, and the MPT driver is fine. I do plan to move to 6.1/AMD64 at some point in the near future, so your comment caught my eye. (I am working with the Adaptec 2230SLP RAID controller on a AMD64 system to verify I can control a RAID before switching, as the ASR driver is not supported under AMD64. However, the CD's and tape plus the system disk will use the MPT driver). Thnak you, Bruce -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "I like bad!"
