I went out and got a LaCie P'9230 drive, an external USB 3.0/2.0 2TB drive (http://www.lacie.com/products/product.htm?id=10559). FreeBSD 9.0-STABLE #5 running on an Intel D845GEBV2L motherboard does not recognize it.

'camcontrol devlist -v' does not indicate any daX devices.

I've used a variety of smaller external LaCie USB 2.0 drives with this motherboard successfully in the past.

A link at the LaCie web site (http://www.lacie.com/more/index.htm?id=10112) indicates that a driver needs to be installed on a Mac in order to realize true USB 3.0 speeds. Does this mean that for me to use this drive, I need a special driver?

I've consulted the hardware compatibility list but it appears to not have been updated to reflect newer hardware.

Any advice would be appreciated.
