I saw your followup that you found my "configuration" file regarding the above. I should point out that the configuration will be changing soon when we move to RAID 5 for all of the disk space. The new config will be a Mylex DAC960SXI hanging off of a two channel AHA-3940AUW (which is aic-7895 based). The Mylex SCSI-SCSI RAID controller has six SCSI busses - two will be configured as host busses with the other four going to the disk drives. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
