I'd like to say that I have been keeping stable with freebsd 4.0, and I
am using ata with an FIC-VA503+ (VIA Apollo MVP3) mobo and a WD Expert
18GB Hard Drive (which I recommend to anyone) with no problems. I have
been updating my kernel as large changes come along and have been amazed
at the stability of the OS and the filesystem. When I first installed
FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE on an old compaq server, the ncr SCSI driver had
some nasty troubles with it that caused the filesystem to corrupt and
the kernel to panic whenever the scsi bus was put under more than a
moderate load.
