[Wanted] [USA-CA] LSI or other RAID Card/HBA


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

Looking to buy a PCI-e HBA for my computer. My peasant computer only has 4 SATA II ports and this is a much more costly method of adding more, compared to buying a new motherboard. Preferably an LSI card with an SAS2008 or SAS2308 chip, but if you have something else that can support 8 SATA drives or has 2 SAS connectors, let me know the details and I might be interested.

 

Thanks!

Just as an afterthought, I know in Europe it's often possible to get LSI based cards pretty cheap on eBay.  Something like this I found quickly on eBay.com which is a decent price, would need to add your forward breakout cables and flash it to IT mode yourself, but there's plenty of guides and advice on here.
