Thanks for the hint. Would you tell me why did you choose Promise
brand as it's expensive compared to the other brands?
Bahman
I chose Promise because all of their products I've ever bought have worked
for me in disk management. It was a roll of the dice as to it would work or
not. Plus, it was the only card the vendor had that I have used for years.
Thus, no guarantee for all, but they have worked on sever different
motherboards so far and all are running fbsd-6.x (mostly 6.2).
The ones I bought were $72 each and handle 2 satas 150/300.
That's the best I can do to help in your case.
HTH....
