I am building a file server off freeBSD, and am wondering if my sata
raid controller is supported by the OS. I have the Addonics *4 Port
RAID 5 / JBOD SATA II PCI Controller (ADSA4R5) controller host. The
chipset is Silicon Image Sil 3124. If this raid card is not
supported, can I install drivers once the system is running? Where
would I find them for freeBSD?
The supported hardware list is here:
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.2R/hardware.html
But I'll tell ya' the SiL sata chips are junk. FreeBSD will
recognize and run with them, but under heavy IO will crash, corrupt
data, and other unacceptable things. I think the ata driver
developer gave up on the things. In any case, don't even waste time
trying to assemble a system with one.
