Review: High quality - Works perfectly. No need to to replace the BIOS even if you do not want RAID functionality. The production quality is very high, too. I was amazed. I use it with 12 year old motherboard with Intel Core 2 (Sandybridge) CPU. it works well. Works out of the box on Arch Linux. No need any driver Review: Works out of the box with ZFS - Installed the "10Gtek Internal PCI Express SAS/SATA HBA RAID Controller Card, LSI SAS2008 Chip, 8-Port 6Gb/s, Same as LSI 9211-8I" earlier today in my Debian server for use in JBOD mode with ZFS, to replace a couple of cheap 4-port SATA controllers. I was initially worried that I would need to jump through some firmware upgrade hoops to avoid the on-board RAID functionality, but it worked fine out of the box - I installed the card, attached 8 SATA drives (mostly WD Red 4TBs) and they all showed to Debian as individual drives as I desired. I've only been using this card a few hours, so can't report on long-term reliabilty, but initial impressions are good. A "zpool scrub" is reporting 1.4GB/s for my pool of 14 drives (7 mirrored pairs). 8 drives are on this card, 5 are on the motherboard's 6-port SATA controller and one (due to my case being full) is in an external USB-3/UASP enclosure. Installing "sas2ircu", it's showing IR firmware v18.0.0.0. ## Features - Controller(s): LSI SAS 2008 6Gbps SAS/SATA HBA.
