I am considering a Supermicro 6040G "SuperServer" as the base for a new system that I need to build. The hardware seems pretty swank, and one of its features is 4 hot-plug (same as hot-swap?) U160 SCA bays/backplane with a QLogic GEM354 management controller. I have built many systems before, but this is the first time I would have ever used a SCSI backplane. So if anyone has had any experience with them (or like products) I have a couple questions: Is this an item that should behave transparently to FreeBSD? For the hot-swap ability, should I be able to do this functionally under FreeBSD with a live system? -- Jonathan Delgado Massachusetts General Hospital delgado@cvrc.mgh.harvard.edu Cardiovascular Research Center Systems Manager To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
