HP server gen 9 support

[Ido Uziel]

I know it's free, but you have a page that say the supporting devise and this is why I'm asking.
You keep saying its free because you didn’t made the adjustment for HP gen 9 server? but I can check it by myself?

You are still misunderstanding the nature of FreeBSD.

FreeBSD is free.

FreeBSD.org is run by a NON-PROFIT organization.

The mailing lists, of which freebsd-questions of one of them, are filled with people who do _not_ speak for the non-profit organization. I do not speak for the non-profit. I'm just a random guy who happens to be on the list trying to help people out. 

I do not speak for FreeBSD.org. 

I am not a sales rep. There are no FreeBSD.org sales reps, nor are there marketing people. Because FreeBSD is not a business selling a product.

So questions of the form "what is your solution" are incorrect because "my" solution is the solution of, like I said, some random guy who represents only myself. 

Now, as for your question regarding your HP smart array p840: I have no idea, and likely nobody else on this list knows either. That's why I pointed you at the freebsd-stable list. (If someone does then hopefully they'll chime in and correct me.)

This list is for "is it plugged in" type of questions. The other lists are for more difficult technical answers, and they are more likely to have on them the people who know the answer to your question.
