I have this controller, but it not work at 6.2-RELEASE-p9.
Adaptec 1430SA based on the Mrevell 88SX7042-BDU1, and AFAIK is not
supported yet
I don`t find it in  ata(4) manual page. 
If you need cheap SATA controller look at Promise, i have Promise
SATA150 TX4 working in old machine about 2 years under FreeBSD with no
problems.
