These chips are also supported by ata(4). 55Some vendors are using same chips, but without providing RAID BIOS. 56.El 57.Sh DESCRIPTION 58The 59.Nm 60driver provides support for HighPoint's RocketRAID based RAID controllers. 61.Pp 62These devices support SATA/ATA disk drives 63and provide RAID0 (striping), RAID1 (mirroring), and RAID5 functionality. 64.Sh HARDWARE 65The 66.Nm 67driver supports the following RAID 68controllers: 69.Pp 70.Bl -bullet -compact 71.It 72RocketRAID 172x series 73.It 74RocketRAID 174x series 75.It 76RocketRAID 2210 77.It 78RocketRAID 222x series 79.It 80RocketRAID 2240 81.It 82RocketRAID 230x series 83.It 84RocketRAID 231x series 85.It 86RocketRAID 232x series 87.It 88RocketRAID 2340 89.It 90RocketRAID 2522 91.El 92.Sh NOTES 93The 94.Nm 95driver only works on the i386 and amd64 platforms as it requires a binary 96blob object from the manufacturer which they only supply for these platforms. 97The 98.Nm 99driver does 100.Em not 101work on i386 with 102.Xr pae 4 103enabled. 104.Pp 105This driver does not support the RR182x series controller. 106See the 107.Xr hptmv 4 108manual page for details on support. 109.Pp 110This driver supersedes the older rr232x driver. 111.Sh SEE ALSO 112.Xr ata 4 , 113.Xr cam 4 , 114.Xr hptmv 4 , 115.Xr loader 8 116.Sh HISTORY 117The 118.Nm 119device driver first appeared in 120.Fx 6.3 . 121.Sh AUTHORS 122.An -nosplit 123The 124.Nm 125device driver was written by 126.An HighPoint Technologies, Inc. , 127and ported to 128.Fx 129by 130.An Scott Long . 131This manual page was written by 132.An David E. O'Brien . 133.Sh BUGS 134The 135.Nm 136driver does not support manipulating the RAID from the OS, RAIDs need 137to be set up from the on-board BIOS. 138
