smartmontools should support 3ware 7xxx & 8xxx controllers, although not 9xxx controllers. See the answer to the question 'Can I monitor ATA disks behind SCSI RAID controllers?' at http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/#FAQ. Although the answer is for Linux, it applies to FreeBSD as well. You have to use '-d 3ware,N' with every command, where N is the unit #. Ex: smartctl -H -A -d 3ware,1 /dev/twed -------------------------------------------------------- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and contains information that is confidential and proprietary to Applied Micro Circuits Corporation or its subsidiaries.
