freebsd stable - Dec 2008 - Adaptec AIC-9410

Hello,

I just recently purchased two new Supermicro servers:
SYS-6025B-3R
SYS-6015B-3R

Both of these have an Adaptec AIC-9410 SAS controller in them, that is 
apparently not detected (or supported?) by FreeBSD (amd64) (7.0 or 7.1 
RC1)

Is there any way to get FreeBSD to detect this controller (and drives on 
it)? I found some conversations from 2006 about this, but no updates 
since.

Thanks in advance, and hoping to be able to get this working.

No verison of FreeBSD has support for the AIC-9410, and I am not aware
of any work to add support for it.

The AIC-9410 is not available as a standalone controller from Adaptec
any longer, so I doubt they have much interest in new driver support
for it.  (It's still used as a component on at least some RAID cards.)

Unfortunately, I suspect your only choices are a different SAS
controller or a different OS.
