We have been unable to get any drives recognised by the FreeBSD 5.3 release installation CD, and we've been unable to find much discussion about the status of the AAC device and support for this chipset. Several other Adaptec SATA RAID controllers seem to be supported: 2410SA, 2810SA, 21610SA. The logical drive configured in the RAID controller is detected successfully in a Gentoo Linux 2004.3 environment. Has anyone had success with this controller? Any alternative you would recommend or will support be available in 5.4? I believe from the source code that the driver is maintained by Scott Long and that recent changes have been taking place. Thanks for any assistance.
