I'm curious how well the 3ware cards work under FreeBSD feature-wise? Can you
hot-swap drives (assuming you have an IDE hot-swap frame and cartridge like
Promise cards support)?  Can a broken mirror be rebuilt on-the-fly while
FreeBSD is running? or do you have to run some sort of BIOS or DOS utility to
get things going again?
