No verison of FreeBSD has support for the AIC-9410, and I am not aware
of any work to add support for it.

The AIC-9410 is not available as a standalone controller from Adaptec
any longer, so I doubt they have much interest in new driver support
for it.  (It's still used as a component on at least some RAID cards.)

Unfortunately, I suspect your only choices are a different SAS
controller or a different OS.
