Hi all

 

I'm looking write now to buy a sata pci card.

 

This card fit my budget SYBA SI-PEX40108 4 Port SATA III PCI-e 2.0 x1 Card.

 

But i want to know if its compatible with unraid or i'm going to have problem ?

It's compatible, though it's Marvell so there will likely be issues with VT-d enable.

 

You can get an used 8 port LSI controller for that price, that would be my choice every time.

Any LSI with a SAS2008/2308/3008 chipset in IT mode, e.g., 9201-8i, 9211-8i, 9207-8i, 9300-8i, etc and clones, like the Dell H200/H310 and IBM M1015, these latter ones need to be crossflashed.

 

Though I don't use it any longer ebay is probably the best place to find them.

Don't have a specific recommendation, but make sure they are forward breakout cables, reverse breakout look the same but won't work.

hi. wil this card work also with VT-D ON? i need virtualization at all cost. what other controller can i take except LSI?

No. Marvell doesn't typically work. Asmedia I think works. LSI is your best option.

I couldn't find any internet references to indicate that specific card will do IT mode, it looks like a RAID only card. unRAID doesn't work well with RAID only cards.

 

As far as a list, browse through @johnnie.black's posts, I know he calls out the current list it seems like every 10th post or so.

After it arrives, contact Broadcom Support with pictures, SNs, etc to find out if it's a counterfeit card or not.
