Date: 3 May 1996 01:57:25 GMT Organization: Northwest Nexus, Inc. - Professional Internet Services Lines: 12 Message-ID: <4mbp65$88@news1.halcyon.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: coho.halcyon.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I was wondering if there is support for the Adaptec 3985 under FreeBSD. Supposedly it is only supported by Netware (so Adaptec claims). I'd like to upgrade from my 3940 to a RAID Level 0 or 1 striping Hardware controller (such as the 3985) but Am hesitant to buy such an expensive card without any support yet. Does anyone see any support soon? Alternatively, Is CCD Striping very fast/effecient compared to hardware striping? I'm considering CCD but haven't done enough research yet to get a clear idea of how stable it would be to run. Thanks. Aaron Mitchell dorian@halcyon.com
