<p class="Pp">These controllers support RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, JBOD, and
    superpositions of those configurations.</p>
<p class="Pp">Although the controllers are actual RAID controllers, the
    <code class="Nm">ciss</code> driver makes them look just like SCSI
    controllers. All RAID configuration must be done through the controllers'
    BIOSes.</p>
<p class="Pp">Hardware from previous generations of this product family may be
    supported by the <a class="Xr">cac(4)</a> driver.</p>
