I switched from NetBSD and found I could no longer drop ntpd's root privileges. systrace seems to be missing from FreeBSD, too. Finally, I'm not sure if FreeBSD does non-exec mappings like NetBSD and OpenBSD do. but I don't think there is anything as good as geli on OpenBSD. The software RAID on FreeBSD is geom RAID3. I've never used it myself, but my understanding is, RAID3 instead of RAID5 and some changes to UFS allowing larger than 512byte sector size manage to plug the RAID5 write hole. There is also vinum, but geom is the future I think. RAIDframe is on NetBSD/OpenBSD not FreeBSD.
