Hi, I have been using a Promise Fasttrak TX2 for my RAID1 filesystem. It works like a charm under FreeBSD and is "officially supported". But if you need RAID5 then I recommend FastTrak TX2000 which is also officially supported by 4.8. It also supports hot swappable hard drives. Fasttraks are also quite inexpensive. I can't say what is the difference between Fasttraks and more expensive onces but I am happy with my Fasttrak. > Thanks for all recomendations. > > Peter Rosa > -- Johan Paul
