August 16, 201113 yr Thanks bjp, I've been meaning to pick one up to switch out with one of my BR10i's. Figured I'd buy one now since I should be switching over to 3TB drives with my next drive purchase.
August 16, 201113 yr Author Someone has bid on it, so if there was once Buy It Now it is gone now. Yep. Hopefully one of "us" (drealit, did you buy it?). Have been keeping my eyes open for a good deal on one of these. He listed two - I bought the other one. $80 shipped is a good deal IMO. There is a seller with 5 of them for $90 shipped, but no bracket. Someone could try a "Best offer" to get it cheaper.
August 16, 201113 yr Author ONE more ... http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-M1015-LSI-9220-8i-RAID-Card-9210-8i-Support-/250875516900?pt=COMP_EN_Networking_Components&hash=item3a695897e4 $80 + 7.50 - he will reflash it for you.

August 21, 201113 yr My freshly flashed M1015 has now been successfully assimilated into my unRaid VM (ESXi). So far I can see nothing wrong with this card, I wish I had 2x 3TB drives to test on it right now.
August 21, 201113 yr http://www.ebay.com/itm/ServeRAID-M1015-SAS-RAID-Controller-46M0861PCIe-/190564818675?pt=COMP_EN_Servers&hash=item2c5e8c5ef3 $80 + $5 ship Bracket Questionable.. it is pictured with one. I just ordered one from this guy for a second one. I guess I'll have to start reading up on the flashing thread...
August 21, 201113 yr Bracket Questionable.. it is pictured with one. Not that it's a guarantee but he does say "1 x ServeRAID M1015 8-port SAS/SATA RAID PCI Express Controller with full-height Bracket".

August 21, 201113 yr I've made some of my most interesting purchases just before the sky went purple. ("interesting" meaning "what was I thinking?")
December 18, 201113 yr So you want the high bracket or no? I am planning on using it in a Norco 4220 case.
December 19, 201113 yr Aren't these the same cards listed in Raj's post in the Hard Drives and Controllers section? If so, his recommend supplier has these cards for $45-$60 depending on version. I haven't bought one yet, but that is my intended source.

I haven't bought one yet, but that is my intended source. They're not the same cards... Raj's post referes to the IBM BR10i which is SATA II, & DOES NOT support 3TB drives. The IBM M1015 is SATA III, & DOES support 3 TB drives. Pretty sure I got that right...
