Don't know personally, but check the Hardware Compatibility wiki page, and the Crossflashing Controllers page.

Had 2 of them cards in the past if i remember correctly or a very similar Fujitsu card.

 

Several hours wasted attempting to flash them, one left bricked. Fujitsu seems to have changed something on the card so it will not recognise stock LSI firmware.

 

Link below to a really good flashing thread along with problems i encountered with Fujitsu cards

Edit, as Fireball3 put it on that thread "Although the card may be "just rebranded", probably there are checks in place to prevent crossflashing with LSI or other firmware."

Check the wiki link once again please!

There is a modified firmware available since a couple of days that let's you crossflash this cards also.

When using the card as HBA (IT mode) you don't really need a BIOS (boot menu).

Booting is faster without BIOS.
