35.Sh NAME
36.Nm tws
37.Nd 3ware 9750 series SATA/SAS RAID controllers driver
38.Sh SYNOPSIS
39To compile this driver into the kernel,
40place the following lines in your
41kernel configuration file:
42.Bd -ragged -offset indent
43.Cd "device scbus"
44.Cd "device tws"
45.Ed
46.Pp
47Alternatively, to load the driver as a
48module at boot time, place the following line in
49.Xr loader.conf 5 :
50.Bd -literal -offset indent
51tws_load="YES"
52.Ed
53.Sh DESCRIPTION
54The
55.Nm
56driver provides support for LSI's 3ware 9750 series
57SATA/SAS controllers.
58.Pp
59These controllers are available in 4, 8, 16 or 24-port configurations,
60and support the following RAID levels: 0, 1, 10, 5, 50, 6.
61The device nodes for the controllers are of the form
62.Pa /dev/tws Ns Ar X ,
63where
64.Ar X
65is the controller number.
66The driver is implemented as a SCSI SIM
67under CAM, and, as such, the logical units that it controls are accessible
68via the device nodes,
69.Pa /dev/da Ns Ar Y ,
70where
71.Ar Y
72is the logical unit number.
73.Sh HARDWARE
74The
75.Nm
76driver supports the following SATA RAID controllers:
