Not right now.

AIC6360 is used in SlimSCSI, Adaptec 1460.

The 1480 uses a much improved chipset, which is well supported by
FreeBSD (by the aha driver).

BUT, we do not have support for Cardbus technology, just PCMCIA. Cardbus
is coming. I was about to ask Warner how it is going. If flaky support
is ready, I might try writing a cardbus attachment for the 1480.
