Most exciting indeed! Also, in terms of stability as compared to other platforms, I have found the 3ware FreeBSD drivers as good if not better than the LINUX and Windows NT and 2000 versions. Those drivers are good, but I did run into a couple of crashes and rebuilds on Windows. But on = the more than half dozen production machines I have these cards in running =46reeBSD, they have been rock solid for us as well as blazing fast! = With the addition of the 3dm management utility it opens up a whole new cost effective class of reliable storage for FreeBSD servers. One small issue: 3ware has yet to update their web site. Also, their FAQ references=20 http://www.3ware.com/products/faq.shtml#L14 which points to old outdated info about the status of the twe driver. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) =09 Sentex Communications Corp, =09 Waterloo, Ontario, Canada "Given enough time, 100 monkeys on 100 routers=20 could setup a national IP network."
