It seems that Broadcom is back into this game.

So far the Broadcom Serverworks HT1000 SATA controller is POO.
I'm seeing all kinds of disk corruption with FreeBSD on a Tyan s3992.
Googling shows that other FreeBSD users have been less than sucessful
with running on the HT1000.

Hmm... What controller does HP use for their ProLiant DL380? "HP Smart
Array P400" is the RAID I can expect. googling implies that Broadcom is
involved?

ciss. I have one DL380 G5 (woodcrest @ 3 GHz and 16 GB ram) running
FreeBSD 6.2 RC1 running postgresql and one DL360 G5 (clowertown @ 2
GHz and 8 GB ram) running 7.0 doing web. But whether it's broadcom on
the raid-controller I can't tell. It "just" works.
