2145 are SVC's (an inline virtualization), have you asked the storage admin whether they have SSD's (storage array) connected to same SAN as this one? I hope they are NOT playing mix and match on SAS's and SSD's.
I don't know why but I still believe they are all SAS disks.

MFI(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual MFI(4)
NAME
mfi -- LSI MegaRAID SAS driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device pci
device mfi
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
mfi_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
This driver is for LSI's next generation PCI Express SAS RAID controllers. Access to RAID arrays (logical disks) from this driver is pro-
vided via /dev/mfid? device nodes. A simple management interface is also provided on a per-controller basis via the /dev/mfi? device node.
The mfi name is derived from the phrase "MegaRAID Firmware Interface", which is substantially different than the old "MegaRAID" interface and
thus requires a new driver. Older SCSI and SATA MegaRAID cards are supported by amr(4) and will not work with this driver.
Two sysctls are provided to tune the mfi driver's behavior when a request is made to remove a mounted volume. By default the driver will
disallow any requests to remove a mounted volume. If the sysctl dev.mfi.%d.delete_busy_volumes is set to 1, then the driver will allow
mounted volumes to be removed.
HARDWARE
The mfi driver supports the following hardware:
o LSI MegaRAID SAS 1078
o LSI MegaRAID SAS 8408E
o LSI MegaRAID SAS 8480E
o LSI MegaRAID SAS 9260
o Dell PERC5
o Dell PERC6
o IBM ServeRAID M5015 SAS/SATA
o IBM ServeRAID-MR10i
o Intel RAID Controller SROMBSAS18E
FILES
/dev/mfid? array/logical disk interface
/dev/mfi? management interface
DIAGNOSTICS
mfid%d: Unable to delete busy device An attempt was made to remove a mounted volume.
SEE ALSO
amr(4), pci(4), mfiutil(8)
HISTORY
The mfi driver first appeared in FreeBSD 6.1.
AUTHORS
The mfi driver and this manual page were written by Scott Long <scottl@FreeBSD.org>.
BUGS
The driver does not support big-endian architectures at this time.
