Same here.  Lspci shows it as " 01:01.0 RAID bus controller: 3ware Inc
3ware 7000-series ATA-RAID (rev 01)"

We are also running the 3dm software to  monitor the card/RAID set.

I've got one of the 8506 series SATA RAID controllers running the stock
3w-xxxx driver with no problems so far - had more problems finding an
XP64
driver for it....

I supose you mean the 3ware 9500S series controllers.

I couldn't find any drivers for suse 9x 64 for the 8506 series.

We also use the 3ware RAID controllers for SATA.  And have had no
problems with them.
