Phase14 was the latest when I assembled the system of course. I'll look
into updating these to Phase16, though I hate doing that on production
boxes. I may simply buy three new controllers, flash them elsewhere and
then swap them in.

Wow, I see LSI has a FreeBSD sas2flash utility.

Has anybody tried LSI's FreeBSD driver, mpslsi? If so, do you feel it's
more advisable to use for some reason instead of FreeBSD's included mps
driver?
