jazzy192 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Hey all, I have been looking around for a 4 port LSI controller for my 4 backplanes which each hold 4 drives (16 total). Don't want to spend the earth so found this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394104990001?hash=item5bc27ce931:g:Ps4AAOSwQrhinf0u&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4K5AU54BbvMQ%2BJ777JEmhKS%2FV0bMsHpbqu47vcTocUjCKkSdTRMGM%2Fg3C0p4TV72SBoMH1h%2FStEoqFCyYwb9QNsCvbcY91JCbq2jbjyUlWr495Y%2FB9Y5oYI3sOiwMATtXe1B38p0MCkd50x9qUEy5wbxmiGMBlY2jTYlyDiue%2FvBtJGBXD6H4R7aV%2BszjAzGwIwa9G3pwdMdDQs2%2FZd%2FrQ25%2Fe1anGu08HFvjSsCU8VGOHerV4EFNVZxpjdMyascVEoCzjg%2Bw3oYL3RXALOuV0fvy9y6nM0TrKJxyYKnbcNo|tkp%3ABk9SR_r6veWdYQ Is it possible to flash this to IT mode for Unraid? I have looked around and cannot find a definitive answer. Cheers Quote Link to comment

I found a replacement 2 port (8 drive) like my last and I already have an expander so will use that unless the expander slows everything down. If so can you recommend any good 4 port (16 drive) cards that are under £100 or around that used? Cheers Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Look for an LSI 9201-16i, 9305-16i, 9305-24i, though not sure you'll be able to find them for under £100, a 2 port HBA with a SAS expander can also be an option. Quote Link to comment
