I've been looking at the Highpoint RocketRAID controllers and seen that they come with FreeBSD drivers. It's just a question of what is good and what to avoid. I am prepared to spend between �40 - �70 on a mid range reliable card.
<http://dict.leo.org/se?lp=ende&p=/Mn4k.&search=not>�70 is not a hell of a lot. Highpoint offers only drivers up to 4.8 and 5.1 for a RR1520; it might be discontinued. The RR1640 is more comfortable because it attracts attention with a painful acoustic signal on hard disk failure. You can even reinitialise the controller or verify a disk array remote with a GUI from another machine. This is much for a controller of this price range. ;-)
I've done RAID setups in linux before (slackware) but never in FreeBSD so i'm looking for recommendations. Not worried about hot swapping capability.
By the way, hot swapping works.
