Hi,
as far as I remember NetBSD supports Promise PDC 20276.
Also, I have heard, that there is a so called 'experimental' driver
for PDC raid support:
<snip from GENERIC kernel config file:>
# ATA RAID configuration support, as found on some Promise controllers.
pseudo-device ataraid
ld* at ataraid? vendtype ? unit ?
<end of snip>
So - if you using it for the simple ATA IDE - it will work.
How about RAID? - just test - and let me know ;)
Sincerely,
Simas Mockevicius
