Re: OCZ ssdpx-1rvd0120 REVODRIVE support
Just to let you know, eventually, after 11.0 was released, I was able to install UFS-based FreeBSD 11 on RAID0. The only problem I had was the loader was unable to boot from it. So I used small flash stick with bootfs and /boot dir on it. It still works as my home workstation. ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I used to have one of these in my workstation (mine was recognized as 4 SATA drives of about 60GB). I had put these into a zfs pool with raidz1 and was able to boot from the card without any issue. BIOS reported them as 4 individual drives. These are pre-NVME, so no NVME driver was necessary. Unfortunately, the card recently died of old age, so I can't provide any more than historic references. The type was OCZSSDPX-1RVDX0240 .
