I'm considering getting some AMI 1400 raid controllers for a few servers. I understand that they don't support booting, that's fine, I want to have a disk for system/swap anyway. My question: I understand that the AMI card supports hotswapping drives. Is this supported by the FreeBSD driver? If so I am planning on buying some removable Kingston drive shells (unless someone can reccommend a better one!) Also, how would I be notified that a drive has failed? console messages? /var/log/messages, or wherever kernel error messages are set to go by /etc/syslog.conf? The boxes are going to be in colocation about 800 miles away, so I need to know if a drive has croaked... My hearing is good, but not *that* good. :) How does the AMI card perform compared to say, the DPT cards? Thanks! adam ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
