=46rom release 5.1-18, smartmontools fully supports 3ware SCSI=20
RAID controllers that use ATA disks internally. To pass=20
commands through the 3ware controller, use the=20
smartmontools -d 3ware,N option or Directive.=20

A few days ago praveenkumar announced that he wrote some=20
code to integrate CCISS-Support (HPs SCSI RAID) into=20

I am interested to test this. Is this patch available in the=20
cvs now?

PS: Would't it be nice to have a list with the supported=20
RAID-Controllers on the homepage?
