HighPoint 2320 RAID fails to start some channels

Hello Everyone,
  I have just installed FreeBSD 6.2 on two mirrored drives(channels 6&7).  
No problem there. I was about to start setting up the rest of the drives  
into other arrays and I found out that they are unavailable.

Dmesg says:
rr232x: fail to start channel [0,0]
rr232x: fail to start channel [0,1]
rr232x: fail to start channel [0,2]
rr232x: fail to start channel [0,3]

The CLI utility doesn't show any devices other than the two drives in  
mirror.
I have up-to-date BIOS in the card(it didn't detect two of the drives  
before).
Im running GENERIC.

All similar problems I found on the net were left unanswered:

http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/questions/2006-05/msg00294.html

This is probably the wrong list for this question - sorry.

Any Ideas?
