Hello world. I've got an AMD64 ASUS motherboard with an Areca ARC-1280ML attached. The card is neatly supported in FreeBSD, from what I've seen - all the drives I plugged in showed up, everything was happy, I created a 10-disk RAID-Z2 across the drives, hurray. Run it for a few days, scrub a few things, reboot a number of times, everything's a dream. Unplug everything, move it to its final location, replug everything. Hm, how strange. I'm only seeing /dev/da0 through da6 instead of da0 through da10 [there were 11 drives attached, one unused]. Okay, poke the ARC-1280ML directly using the sysutils/areca-cli utility. Reports all 11 drives happily attached. dmesg only reports notes on da0 through da6. camcontrol reports: # camcontrol devlist -v scbus0 on arcmsr0 bus 0: <Seagate ST31500341AS R001> at scbus0 target 1 lun 0 (da0,pass0) <Seagate ST31500341AS R001> at scbus0 target 1 lun 1 (da1,pass1) <Seagate ST31500341AS R001> at scbus0 target 1 lun 2 (da2,pass2) <Seagate ST31500341AS R001> at scbus0 target 1 lun 3 (da3,pass3) <Seagate ST3160827AS R001> at scbus0 target 1 lun 4 (da4,pass4) <Seagate ST31500341AS R001> at scbus0 target 1 lun 5 (da5,pass5) <Seagate ST31500341AS R001> at scbus0 target 1 lun 6 (da6,pass6) <Areca RAID controller R001> at scbus0 target 16 lun 0 (pass7) <> at scbus0 target -1 lun -1 () scbus-1 on xpt0 bus 0: <> at scbus-1 target -1 lun -1 (xpt0) camcontrol rescan all changes nothing.
