FreeBSD 10.2 + Adaptec RAID 5805?
Hello.
There is a server with fresh FreeBSD 10.2 and an Adaptec RAID 5805 controller with 4 SATA drives in JBOD.

Adaptec is evil, get rid of it immediately :-)
In JBOD mode, frya will not see disks, you need to create arrays on the controller. Then they will be visible. You can create arrays from one disk, and then build arrays of any configuration in software on a fra, on ZFS or on GEOM.
Adaptecs have one more unpleasant property - the firmware crashes there when a disk leaves the array. And the controller stops responding to requests altogether. We stumbled upon this and promptly replaced everything with LSI.
