There is support for Adaptec/PMC controllers behind the AACRAID driver on Linux and Windows.

See '-d aacraid' option on smartctl man page, and:
https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/Supported_RAID-Controllers

The original patches for smartmontools were provided by developers from
PMC-Sierra:
http://www.smartmontools.org/ticket/328
http://www.smartmontools.org/ticket/496

I don't know which specific controllers are supported.

Regards,
Christian
