Hi, no one seem to have answered this (at least not to the list). Therefore I thought that I at least could tell you that I set up a PE750 for a client some months ago. The server uses a CERC SATA RAID 2, and is working very well (fast & stable). I tested things like hotplugging and booting of a stripe and it worked as expected. The server is using 4.10 (5.2.1 didn't work with the card, 5.3 (very!)probably does). I really wouldn't run 5.x for production use anyway. I would persume that the aac driver would work for a 6 channel card as well, as the channels are abstracted away from the OS point-of-view. -- Regards, | An ideal world is left Øyvin Halfdan Thuv | as an excercise to the reader. | [Paul Graham, OnLisp 8.1] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
