Here's the entry for it from lspci -v. I can quote the entire file if you prefer.
00:11.0 RAID bus controller: ARALION Inc: Unknown device 0301
Flags: bus master, 66Mhz, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 10
I/O ports at ac00 [size=16]
I/O ports at b000 [size=16]
I/O ports at b400 [size=16]
I/O ports at b800 [size=16]
I/O ports at bc00 [size=16]
I/O ports at c000 [size=8]
Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled] [size=64K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 1
However. I put the thing in to try and relieve a problem of drive bays and
connector lengths. A bit of lateral thinking has provided another solution
and I no longer need the card urgently.
