Please post any followups to FreeBSD-scsi only (ie, do not re-introduce FreeBSD-fs). Thanks! On Mon, Nov 09, 1998 at 11:08:29AM +0100, Bagnara Stefano wrote: > I cannot find a SCSI card for RAID3.

I have no idea what the AAA-131-SA even is, from a programmers standpoint. I don't think we support it. I'm running with a DPT controller, and am fairly happy with it (due to this being a really old board, they don't have and won't produce a workaround for a bug in my BIOS, but apart from that I've had absolutely no problems). I also believe these are faster than the Adaptecs. The FreeBSD driver is stable and actively maintained (to the degree it need maintenance - this hasn't really been that much). Eivind.
