12.Sh NAME
13.Nm asr
14.Nd driver for Adaptec I2O based SCSI/ATA host bus adapters
15.Sh SYNOPSIS
16.Cd "device asr"
17.Sh DESCRIPTION
18The Adaptec
19.Nm
20driver provides access to disks
21and disk arrays controlled by I2O based host bus adapters and
22SmartRAID SCSI RAID adapters through the standard SCSI disk
23.Xr da 4
24interface.
25.Pp
26The supported adapters provide 64 bit PCI,
27Compact PCI, Zero Channel PCI,
28and up to four channels of Ultra2, Ultra 160, or Ultra320 SCSI,
29or two channels of 1GB Fibre.
30All support RAID-0, RAID-1, RAID-10, RAID-5 and RAID-50 arrays.
31All SCSI target types are supported.
32For the ATA based controllers, one IDE drive per channel is supported.
33Hot-swapping of IDE drives is not supported at this time.
34.Pp
35All host bus adapters must be configured
36before they can be used with any operating system.
37Please contact Adaptec directly to obtain the latest information
38on configuration utilities for the adapters.
39Currently there are both a Motif based GUI configuration utility
40and a CLI based configuration utility available from the Adaptec Web site.
41The cards and arrays can also be configured via the BIOS based configuration
42tool (SMOR).

90.Sh NOTES
91The ATA based controllers present their devices as SCSI-like devices via CAM.
92For IDE drives attached to these cards, a subset of standard SCSI commands
93and mode pages are understood via translation performed in the card's firmware.
