NAME
arcmsr - Areca SATA II RAID Controller driver
SYNOPSIS
device arcmsr device pci device scbus device da
DESCRIPTION
The arcmsr driver provides support for the Areca ARC-11xx and ARC-12xx series of SATA II RAID controllers. These controllers feature RAID-0, 1, 3, 5, 6, and 10 and JBOD acceleration for up to 16 SATA drives. Raid level and stripe level migration, online capacity expansion, hot inser‐ tion/removal, automatic failover and rebuild, and SMART are also sup‐ ported. Access to the arrays is provided via the SCSI CAM /dev/da? device nodes. A management interface is also present via the /dev/arcmsr? device node. Management tools for i386 and amd64 are avail‐ able from Areca.
