looks to be the Adaptec 2000 family, like 2200S and variations. the AAC driver should be built into pretty much every linux kernel since eons ago.
Right - I think the driver's there, I can access the drives (well, mostly
- I had one fail while I was trying to copy stuff onto it, and now there's
not even a /dev/sdb; also, I created a partition on /dev/sdc, but there was a time or two while I got hung tasks for a bunch of minutes, with rsync just sitting there). So I'd like to find the manager, and see if there's some weird settings....
that appears to be a rather old family of parallel SCSI raid cards, and Adaptec doesn't seem to support anything newer than RHEL 5 on them ... you need either aaccli or arcconf or their GUI java-based ASM. users manual here, http://updates.aslab.com/doc/disk-controller/aacraid_guide.pdf
there are newer versions of arcconf for newer cards, but they don't say they support the older cards, for instance http://www.adaptec.com/en-us/speed/raid/storage_manager/arcconf_v1_1_20324_z...
