I've got 860, 1435, 1600, 1950, 2950 all running 6.2-relelase-p7 with custom kernels. Watch out though the RAID-1 write speed on w/ FreeBSD is known to be pathetically the worst thing ever with this raid card: SAS 5IR internal RAID adapter, PCI-Express Read speed seems fine though. mpt0: [GIANT-LOCKED] mpt0: MPI Version=1.5.12.0 da0 at mpt0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <Dell VIRTUAL DISK 1028> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-5 device da0: 300.000MB/s transfers, Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 237464MB (486326272 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 30272C) My other RAID cards doing RAID0, RAID5, and RAID1+0 are all stellar. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Philip M.
