That'll do it. :-)

I've used CMDs controllers with Adaptec host adapters and FreeBSD for an
extended period of time, and have had no problems with them.  The
application in which I used these devices was an ISP - for primary storage.

Trust me when I tell you that if there were implementation "funnies" I would
have found them.

With that said, I HAVE seen SCSI I/O errors - usually due to either power
trouble or bad termination - in the past.  But if you're not getting these,
the fault almost certainly does not lie in the RAID subsystem.
