Seeing as "How do I implement RAID on FreeBSD?" seems to be a very FAQ on
-questions, I thought the following might be interesting.  Forwarded without
permission from the linux-eata mailing list...

> driver for our Gen V controllers that will be introduced in late October.
> They will then turn it over to us for continued support and enhancements.
> We should be able to provide a stable and complete Linux solution in the Q1

> that time frame at this time.  We recognize the increased need for "full"
> Linux support and we will definitly have it... it's really just a question

> Sorry I cant be any more certain about dates, but we are introducing
