hdaudio0 at pci0 dev 27 function 0: HD Audio Controller
hdafg0 at hdaudio0: Realtek ALC887
seems fine in the sense that I have played CD with cdplay and heard something.
re0 at pci3 dev 0 function 0: RealTek 8168/8111 PCIe Gigabit Ethernet (rev.
0x06)
rgephy0 at re0 phy 7: RTL8169S/8110S/8211 1000BASE-T media interface, rev. 5
is fine, and from the USB point of view, I have used umass.
So far so good... It's one of the disks that just packed-in, and seatools
doesn't recognise the controller
ahcisata0 at pci0 dev 31 function 2: Intel 7 Series (desktop) SATA Controller
(AHCI) (rev. 0x04)
making sending Seagate a test code "interesting".
