We have an ICP Vortex GDT8546RZ 4 port SATA controller on a FreeBSD system. Actually, we have a number of them on FreeBSD 4.x systems, and have always used ICP's driver rather than the FreeBSD driver because the ICP driver works with their icpcon tool, and FreeBSD 4.x's driver doesn't. Well, we've got an ICP card in a FreeBSD 5.4 system now, and I'm wondering what driver to use. ICP's site lists 5.1 as the most recent 5.x version tested. The differences between ICP's driver and the FreeBSD 5.x driver seem to be almost trivial. And the icpcon tool works just fine with the FreeBSD 5.x driver. Does anybody have any advice or experience to share on this?
