[-- Attachment #1 --] Hello Jeremy, 1. it's a FreeBSD-9.1-p3 (RELEASE) (sorry i haven't the exact output because i'm not at work, but i'm sure of the release and version). 2.

No ZFS was there, it's UFS2 without tuning options. -- Best regards, Loïc BLOT, UNIX systems, security and network expert http://www.unix-experience.fr Le samedi 22 juin 2013 à 13:49 -0700, Jeremy Chadwick a écrit : > On Sat, Jun 22, 2013 at 09:37:37PM +0200, Loc BLOT wrote: > > Hi all ! > > Thanks for the very good support of Dell R320 hardware, perc H310 is > > well supported, BCM5720 seems to work correctly and performances are > > great. > > The only problem i have found is very strange.
