pst -- device driver for Promise Supertrak SX6000
device pst
This driver is for the Promise Supertrak SX6000 ATA hardware RAID controller.
It supports (in hardware) RAID levels 0, 1, 0+1, 3, 5 and JBOD
on up to 6 ATA disk drives, including automatic rebuild and hotswap, and
supports signalling disk status on LEDs on Promise Superswap disk enclosures.
The Supertrak line of controllers does not support non-disk
devices.
The pst driver does not support manipulating the RAID from the OS, RAIDs
need to be set up from the onboard BIOS. However, hot swap, hot spare,
and automatic rebuilds are supported without a reboot.
The pst driver first appeared in FreeBSD 4.7.
The pst driver and man page was written by Soren Schmidt
