You shouldn't need to. The 3ware driver is built in and the hardware is
autorecognised (it isn't autorecognised in RedHat 7, even though the
driver is there).
We have tested in-house with a 6200 2-port. I believe that the driver is
compatible with your card as well. Be sure to let [EMAIL PROTECTED] know if
you find otherwise.
