meep Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) I had this in my Amazon.co.uk basket at around £120 and was considering purchase when I received notification that it had dropped to £86. Snapped one up; https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01M2AC40Y/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=edomotek-21&linkId=9b807c9b3592a09edc0c6c343c2aab5b&language=en_GB Now to figure out how to flash it for best unRaid performance.....

allanp81 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 How does that compare to a Dell H310 sas that you can pick up from ebay for about £25? Quote Link to comment

It is, basically, the same card (of course, the OP purchased a new LSI card). The Dell H310 uses the same SAS2008 chip from LSI Logic. However, the Dell cards need to be cross flashed with 9211-8i IT firmware as they come with Dell proprietary RAID firmware (there are pre-flashed H310s available on eBay for around $55) I just purchased an H310 for $30 on eBay (beware of Chinese LSI/Dell fakes) and flashed it to 9211-8i 20.00.07.00 firmware yesterday. Works great. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-3P0R3-PERC-H310-PCIe-RAID-Controller/223286565043?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 Look for server pulls or something similar in the EU.

allanp81 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Likewise, I got one the other week and flashed it to IT mode. Cost me about £30 total and works great Quote Link to comment
