The
iteide driver supports the IT8211 and IT8212 IDE controllers which are found on some Gigabyte motherboards (as “GigaRAID”) and some PCI cards. This driver provides the interface with the hardware for the
ata(4) driver.
The optional RAID functionality of the IT8211 and IT8212 is not supported and is explicitly disabled by the
iteide driver. The controller will act like a regular IDE controller with no RAID functionality.
