What is the difference between the Dell HBA330 04Y5H1 and the Dell HBA330 J7TNV cards please? Sorry for the dumb Q... Thankyou 🙂

Good point, thank you 🙂

Hi, Long-time unRAID user and thread reader, first post though 🙂 Upgrading from just a 'file NAS' to start a home-lab journey. Reading through all the posts, this 9200-81 IT is just fine and works OOB. Though because of 'some' later model Seagate drives, any of these HBA330 LSI9300-8i cards flashed in IT mode with latest firmware are preferred? Dell PERC H330 PCIe (no brackets) DELL PERC H330 PCIe (Unknown which FW version or mode - seems easy enough to flash) DELL PERC H330 PCIe (latest FW and IT mode) Q/. I'm thinking of buying option 2 above. Will this be ok with my setup and future of unRAID expansion with ZFS being introduced? (option 3 seems pricey for me and I'm still learning ZFS) Parity: 8TB Seagate Ironwolf Pro (build date Dec 2022) HDD: 3 x 4TB WD Red Plus & 1 x 4TB Seagate Ironwolf Pro (build date Oct 2022) Cache: 1TB M.2 crucial P3 Setup: MSI Z97 Gaming 5 MoBo, GTX 1080, i5 4690K, 32gb G.Skill F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL 1600MHz DDR3 - recycling an old PC. Parity and cache drives will be direct to MoBo, any other drives will connect to expansion card. *MoBo doesn't take ECC RAM 😕 Will be using unRAID VM Windows and Linux. Thankyou in advance for any info 🙂 I really enjoy unRAID and the friendly community help, info and apps 👍. I've learnt a lot over last couple of years. Thankyou to everyone for all I've learnt. Gen7 micro HP I'll recycle as a files back up NAS running Debian
