HBA Recommendations

Greetings all.

 

I have a LSI 9305-24i w/8087 backplane connectors....I'm beginning to think it's garbage since I keep getting disk errors. I've checked connections repeatedly and also set up a dual 92mm GPU cooling fan to keep it cool. Still issues.

 

Are there any better HBA's with 8087 connections out there for 24 bay boxes?

 

thanks

Thanks Jorge.....I've been trying to find a used one out of a server pull, but not a lot of luck finding a US vendor.  Cables are a crapshoot too.

The new cable standard is SFF-8654, and I haven't found any cables to SFF-8087 that aren't for PCIe, but cables from SFF-8643 such as used on the lsi 9300 and 9400 series to SFF-8087 work just fine, both ways too. I've used a 9400 like that for months (but also verified with my 9300). I'm currently using a 9500 with 8654-8643 cables, attached to a PCB-adapter from 8643-8087 and a small 8087-8087 cable (since the limit is 1 meter for sata) in that computer.
