This is a low-budget suggestion: I have good experiences with RocketRAID 1520 and 1640. I'm running a 1640 with three SATA drives since one year without problems; it's just a little bit slow. Highpoint offers binary FreeBSD drivers for these controllers, but I think that people don't like this kind of support because Highpoint neglects it for older models and this dependency might be dangerous in future. Keep in mind: you'll get what you pay for. Regards Björn
