Ouch, I have a server which both hds show dma errors all new hardware.
 I cant rule out hardware failure, incompatible sata interface etc.
but if it is a freebsd bug then surely its a showstopper as stability
is compromised which freebsd has built its reputation on.  Did they
push ahead with release because waiting for the mia dev?
