Hi,

the drivers are not needed for the drives, they are needed for the
SCSI-controller. Please look at 

http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.1R/notes.html

Chapter 2.1 if your SCSI-controller ist supported.

If it is not you may want to download a newer version of FreeBSD to install
from. Take _then_ a look at:

ttp://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.3R/notes.html

if it is supported now.

To install FreeBSD take a look at:

http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html

Hope that helps

Marc
