FreeBSD may have problems too as seveal FreeBSD releases introduced (from time to time) a bug in CAM Auto Sense handling that causes strange problems. There is no workareound except for finding the "right" FreeBSD version :-( My recommendation is to use Solaris. Solaris did also have problems but there always has been a work around. http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/solaris-express/get.html The only current problem with Solaris 10 is that it disables DMA with ATAPI CD-ROM drives but there is a sulution by appliying a "adb" patch to the driver binary which is documented in the cdrtools README's.....
