Just to add to this, I just installed PFSense on 2 PE 2850's each with 6
10/100/1000 Interfaces 2GB RAM and 2X250GB Sata Harddrives using Dell's
Hardware raid.  Using RC1 all is well.

so driving 200 miles is cheaper for you than buying a $150 UPS?!?!?   
man, you must be underpaid.

anyhow, to answer your question, I run Pfsense on a PE SC 400 with a  
Dell SATA RAID card (which is basically adaptec) with no problems.

I've never had problems with FreeBSD not recognizing devices on a  
Dell box. You should be safe.  I know for sure FreeBSD 6.1 recognizes  
the SATA RAID on a PE800.
