Hi, We are considering Intel new SCSI RAID series of controllers. Despite that they are listing their controllers as "Supported with Limited Campatability and Validation" with FreeBSD4.4 and higher. We will be running FreeBSD4.8. The SRCU42L is a potential candidate, in conjunction with some of the newer Intel server motherboards that har 64bit/66MHz PCI buses. Please note that we will not be running in SMP mode, as our application runns slower on multi CPU systems. If Xeon CPU, we will operate without HyperTreading enabled. If anyone that have experience setting up these controllers, or might have an opinion on these matters, can give us some info it would be grately appreciated. The motherboards that we consider are Intel SE7501CW2 or SE7505VB2 among others. On beforehand thank you. -Stein M.
