I'm loving FreeNAS and this forum. Awesome job to everyone involved.
I am pulling the trigger and rolling my own FreeNAS box. After reading tons of hardware configurations and recommendations I've settled on some hardware that looks like this:
NORCO CHASSIS - RPC-4020
CORSAIR HX850W 850w POWER SUPPLY
SUPERMICRO MOTHERBOARD C2SEA
INTEL CELERON E3400 2.6G CPU
4GB RAM
ADAPTEC 6805 SATA III RAID CONTROLLER KIT
10 x 2TB 7200 RPM, SATA 6G, 64MB CACHE SEAGATE BARRACUDA XT HARD DRIVE
(I will add a SAS expander and another 12 drives in the near future)
Hardware has been purchased, delivered and assembled. FreeNAS USB stick created. Unfortunately, FreeNAS won't pickup my Adaptec RAID 6805 controller.
Given that FreeNAS is built on FreeBSD and I can download drivers from Adaptec for that platform, can anyone give me some guidance on how to successfully apply/install this driver?
Apprecaite the help.
