Second, various Adaptec sources have confirmed that they do support
FreeBSD.

There are new drivers for the 22300SLP for example (though one person replied to me privately and said they crash all the time). However, what they claim as support is not really support. There is no updated driver for older 2200s family cards, no updated management apps, no management apps for new cards (2230SLP has a driver from Adaptec, but no management or reporting app which makes it almost useless)...

When you call Adaptec and tell them you are on FreeBSD, even if the issue is in their firmware, they don't want to talk to you (though they often still will -- my issue a year or two ago they did work on after telling me it wasn't supported)...
