I have several FreeBSD machines with onboard Promise and HighPoint ATA RAID
controllers, and they all work perfectly. You should be OK with the Intel
MB.

Hello people,
Anyone tried FreeBSD 4.6.* on Intel D845EBT motherboard?
Especially interesting is how an onboard Promise PDC2067 IDE RAID
controller works with FreeBSD - or better to say, does it work at all?
What are the caveates with it, if any? How RAID configuration works?
I had the same question (on 4.7) regarding the pdc20267. There were no
formal replies, so I asked Andrew privately. His response is below, printed
with permission, in case others search the archives for this answer:
Thanks Andrew.

Hi Christopher,
I got a bunch of replies via private email (people think that it's so
obvious that doesn't worth any further public discussion).
Everyone says that yes it works perfectly.
Unfortunately, I personally wasn't able to test this, because my plans to
buy this exact board changed with an appearance of new 845 chipset (533
MHz FSB, DDR 333 etc.) and I got a modern one without RAID (now I'm a
happy user of vinum (1)).
Regards,
Andrew
