On all 5 it is the:

twa0: <3ware 9000 series Storage Controller> port 0xc800-0xc8ff mem 0xec000000-0xedffffff,0xfeaff000-0xfeafffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci1
twa0: INFO: (0x15: 0x1300): Controller details:: Model 9690SA-8I, 128 ports, Firmware FH9X 4.10.00.027, BIOS BE9X 4.08.00.004

Yeah, it's old but good (and I have a bunch of spare drives sitting
in a dry storage :-)).

Thanks,
