>Description:
  I have an Areca ARC-1120 RAID controller installed on dual Opteraon
box. I created a RAID set with 5 disks, which is working fine.
According to the BIOS RAID manager, there is no problem with the
disks, but "bioctl arcmsr0 show disks" command reports errors:

# bioctl arcmsr0 show disks

Disk #0, 1, and 2 are the same model; Maxtor 7Y250M0.

On the console, I had multiple messages like:

    arc_bio_disk_filldata: unknown disk device_state: 0x88

I also tried FreeBSD software provided by Areca, and found no problem.

There is the same problem on NetBSD 4.0.

>How-To-Repeat:
        run "bioctl arcmsr0 show disks"
>Fix:
        not yet.
