#define MPI_EVENT_SAS_PHY_LINK_STATUS       (0x00000012)
#define MPI_EVENT_SAS_DISCOVERY_ERROR       (0x00000013)

Event 0x16 just means that the card is probing for devices attached to
the PHY's 
In your case 0x12 means a device have been seen on a PHY

P.S. If you get time and want to do me a favor, configure 2 drives on
the controller in a RAID-1 configuration.
Then do a disk test on the RAID-1 volume, say with iozone or any other
method, and tell me your performance.

I get slow RAID-1 performance, still cannot figure this out, ~5
Mbytse/sec instead of ~ 30 Mbytes/sec with no volume.
With NCQ enabled it goes up to 15, but it' still not 30.

I can get faster RAID-1 performance by implementing this in software
doing parallel writes.

How I can test it...
First of all FreeBSD should see RAID, but it only see separated HDD (da*)
This is the problem that I described
