Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sun, 14 Sep 2014 11:47:55 -0400 =EF=BB=BFI have a chance to get an HP Envy with 32.0 GB memory, 64-bit syst= em with an Intel(R) Core (TM) i7-4820K CPU @ 3.70GHz. I can get the unit for free at a fire sale (long story). It is using the Intel=C2=AE Rapid Storage Technol= ogy software with RAID 5 with three 1,863 GB HDs. This is currently being run on a Win-8.1 system. If I wanted to turn this into a FreeBSD machine, and I am not even sure if all of the hardware in this unit is supported by FreeBSD, how would I go about duplicating this setup? Obviously, the Intel software would not work under FreeBSD. What would/could I use to replace it with the same functionality? --=20 Jerry --Sig_/uT1jGGFfeJmNMXjteGIUa6.
