Has anyone used any of the Adaptec SATA RAID solutions? I'm currently 
looking at the 2410SA:

which gives 4 SATA connections with hardware RAID5 acceleration. At the 
moment I'm looking at one for personal use, but we're looking at 
something similar for work in the next couple of weeks. I was planning 
on getting the bundle with the enclosure:

which got a rather good review on a few sites I saw. Anyone had any luck 
with these cards under FreeBSD (4.x or 5.x)?

Cheers
Antony
