It is very fast but as of yet there are no drivers for it. Persons on the FreeBSD core team are working on writing one. In addition someone is almost finished w/ one for 386bsd which could easily be ported over to FreeBSD. Until then BSD won't work w/ the ASUS PCI SCSI cont. Sorry, I've been wanting to get one too.
