Hello! I need to buy a IDE-RAID controller for a customer. I know there 
are a lot of good controllers out there, but which one should I choose 
for my bsd-machine? Is there a de-facto controller which I should 
choose?  I can choose between brands like Adaptec, Highpoint and 
Promise. Is there any way for me to check which one is compatible with 
freebsd (the hardware list at freebsd.org feels a little sparse) ?

Thanks in advance,
Mathias.
