mr.x Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) I'm looking to purchase a LSI 9207-8i card and move my drives to it. I noticed on ebay cards are sold with or without boot services. Can someone explain if boot services are required and what the difference is? The options for boot services on the card are uefi bios or legacy bios. The cards come with LSI Avago IT mode firmware version P20 (20.00.07.00). Edited July 14, 2021 by mr.x Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 BIOS on the HBA is not required for Unraid, since it will not be booting from it. Quote Link to comment
mr.x Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 Thanks. Is there any configuration I need to do if I buy a card with bios? Same question for without bios. Or are they both plug and play =). Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Either way is plug and play. Quote Link to comment
