I got a cheapie Dell 600sc server with a CERC 4-channel *IDE* RAID
controller.  It is also makde by LSI/AmericanMegaRAID and appears to
present the same interface to the system as the PERC -- FreeBSD-5.x
recognizes it right away as an "amr" device.


I expect the difference is just that it has IDE interfaces to talk to
the disk instead of SCSI.
