Dear sir,
Thanks for your quickly reply.=20

I have another question. I intend to use SuperMicro's motherboard that =
had integrated with Adaptec's AIC-7892 SCSI Controller, But SuperMicro's =
engineer told me that their motherboards didn't support FreeBSD because =
of Adaptec AIC-7892/AIC-7899 SCSI Controller. Could you tell me which's =
version will support this SCSI controller? Is it V4.1 or V4.1.1? I am =
wondering.

Any help will be appreciated.

=20
Best regards

    To whom it may concern,
    I intend to install FreeBSD into my system that is integrated with =
Adaptec Ultra160 (AIC-7892 controller) SCSI Card. I am wondering whether =
FreeBSD supports this SCSI Card. I had checked Adaptec's web site, they =
didn't provide the driver for FreeBSD.

    Any help will be appreciated.
