It's plug and play. I have another one for my next U5. I was very pleased
at how easy it was.

And I like this:

esiop0 at pci2 dev 1 function 0: Symbios Logic 53c875 (ultra-wide scsi)
esiop0: using on-board RAM
esiop0: interrupting at ivec 10
scsibus0 at esiop0: 16 targets, 8 luns per target

sd0 at scsibus0 target 6 lun 0: <IBM, IC35L018UWD210-0, S5CS> disk fixed
sd0: 17501 MB, 20765 cyl, 6 head, 287 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 35843670 sectors
sd0: sync (50.00ns offset 16), 16-bit (40.000MB/s) transfers, tagged queueing
                                       ^^^^^^^^^^
