>Description:
Afaik the mfi(4) driver also supports the following devices for quite a while now:
LSI MegaRAID SAS 8408E
LSI MegaRAID SAS 8480E
LSI MegaRAID SAS 1078
Dell PERC5
Dell PERC6
man mfi(4) and the hardware release notes only mentions the following hardware:
LSI MegaRAID SAS 8408E
LSI MegaRAID SAS 8480E
Dell PERC5/i
-CURRENT has this corrected for a long time now, I've seen reports about PERC6 working in 6.3 and 7.0 one and a half years ago:

This should be updated, so people can make informed decisions when buying hardware that's supported by FreeBSD.
