I don't need to put this into production immediately, so I can test something during the next few days. After that, it will be hard to test with drives hooked up as the cables are not the same for it and the 9261. Just seeing if the hw get recognized without drives attached would be easy enough. I should be getting two more identical systems in the next few months, so I could test it with one of those too. The plan is to put netbsd-7 on these, but I could boot a current kernel if needed.
