If that one uses the LSI1068 chipset, do you know which one uses the LSI1078 chipset? I've seen that number in the comments in one of the mf* drivers (think it was mfi). How does one determine which actual chipset is in which controller? Do they have that buried in the docs somewhere? I've also found a couple of Areca cards (PCI-X, non-RAID/PCIe RAID), and have heard good things about Areca support in FreeBSD. Any comments on their quality/performance/reliability? -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
