RAID1 and ASUS PSCH-L motherboard

[Claude B.]

Hello,

I intalled FreeBSD 5.3 without problem on my ASUS PSCH-L server
motherboard. I setup a RAID 1 array in the BIOS of the Promise PDC20319
controller and I boot on the RAID array: "Hard Disk Drives:[FT TX Ary
1]".
FreeBSD 5.3 supports perfectly this controller in view of the atacontrol
commands and all seem ok:

# atacontrol list
ATA channel 0:
    Master: acd0 <SAMSUNG CD-ROM SH-152A/C503> ATA/ATAPI revision 4
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 1:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 2:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 3:
    Master:  ad6 <Maxtor 6Y160M0/YAR51HW0>     Slave:       no device
present
ATA channel 4:
    Master:      no device present
    Slave:       no device present
ATA channel 5:
    Master: ad10 <Maxtor 6Y160M0/YAR51HW0>     Slave:       no device
present
# atacontrol status ar0
ar0: ATA RAID1 subdisks: ad6 ad10 status: READY
#

I have a question:
How to do to check the RAID 1 is operational without all to break?
Is there tools to check?
Here the ships of my board:

Thank in anticipation,
claude
