I have perused the lists and saw this might be support with OpenSolaris. It's
not listed on the HCL on the Openindiana wiki but like I said, some
OpenSolaris threads talk about this controller being supported:
http://osdir.com/ml/os.solaris.opensolaris.help/2006-07/msg00022.html
Has anyone used these controllers and had any luck or no luck as it were?
Well, I have 2 systems with 9650SE cards in them ... Not the same as yours, but pretty
close... I spent a rather long time figuring out how to make it work, because 3Ware was
originally planning to support it on opensolaris, but they basically tanked it. They
wrote the driver, but never got the installer quite working before pulling the plug. I
found a forum somewhere, where some guy posted, "I'm one of the developers on that
driver, and blah blah, we never got it working, but you can use it if you're willing to
manually do the following..." And those instructions worked.
3ware did? I thought the tw driver only came out after it got bought by LSI?
Until then, Areca was the only game in town but who uses hardware raid
anymore now that we have ZFS?
