LSI SAS 2008 HBA card
Detaljer
Beskrivelse
Pulled off from old server; tested and confirmed working as expected.
The card has LSI SAS 2008 chip and two SFF-8087 port which can drive up to 8 SATA HDDs. Physical connector is PCIe 2.0 x8, but can also work with x4 lanes. This card has latest firmware and operates in IT mode. Works out-of-box with Windows 10 and Ubuntu Server 20.04.
Note to read before ordering:
1. Make sure you understand what it is and what it intend to do.
2. This card is NOT brand-new, and while it works well as I ran it with 8 HDDs in Linux, here comes absolutely NO guarantee of its compatibility and durability.
3. Although it should be cooler than PCIe 3.0 HBA cards, it still can be pretty hot under heavy load and potential performance issue may occur if overheated. Proper cooling is recommended, and don't get burnt by the heatsink.
