Hi Jeanie,

For me, with a recent FreeBSD 13 kernel, it just works, as the aacraid
driver is now included with the default PowerPC64 kernel.
But I'm using it with only one SAS drive, so I haven't tested its raid
capabilities.
The only complaint that I have is that, on my machine, disk writes are very
slow.
