LSI 9300-16i 12Gbps SAS-3 PCIe x8 HBA P16 IT mode ZFS TrueNAS UNRAID

  
LSI 9300-16i 12Gbps SAS-3 PCIe x8 HBA P16 IT mode ZFS TrueNAS UNRAID. Listed for sale is an LSI 9300-16i HBA SAS controller card. It is fully updated to Avago / LSI 9300-16i IT (Initiator Target) mode firmware version P16 (specifically 16.00.10.00). I also flashed the LSI/Avago MPTSAS3 BIOS ROM version 08.37.00.00 and UEFI 18.00.00.00 so that it is easier to access the controller's ROM without booting an OS.

LSI IT mode firmware version P16 (16.00.10.00). MPTSAS3 BIOS ROM flashed version 08.37.00.00.

MPTSAS3 UEFI ROM flashed version 18.00.00.00. Original SAS address preserved in flash. Original Board Tracer Number preserved in flash. Original Board Assembly preserved in flash.

These are based on a pair of LSI SAS3008 SAS controller chipset and support 12Gbps SAS-3 storage devices. It uses a PCI-E 3.0 connection with x8 lanes. The controller has 4 SFF-8643 connectors, each carrying 4x 12Gbps SAS lanes. You will need a compatible cable to connect these to your SAS or SATA drives. CAUTION#1 : Please note this card is a high performance card and runs hot.

You must install it with plenty of airflow over its heatsink. Improper cooling can cause failure and poor reliability. These cards are fully tested in my Supermicro server running ZFS on Linux (ZoL), but this setup is also ideal for other ZFS setups, FreeNAS, unRAID, Proxmox VE, etc. I have fully tested them using all 16 SAS lanes.

Not exactly the HBA / IT mode adapter you were looking for? Feel free to ask any questions. I'm aware of counterfeit products on the market, and I make every effort to ensure that what I sell are not counterfeit. I have a YouTube channel with many helpful videos. Look for "Art of Server" on YouTube. I fully test the HBAs I sell. See my testing process on YouTube.

I clean the server components I sell. You will not receive something covered in dust, or have unwanted stickers/labels, etc. I love what I do! I've used ZFS for many years. I'm familiar with ZFS on Linux, FreeNAS, and many of the technologies commonly used by other enthusiasts.

How can you deny my cute, cuddly charm? Who is the Art of Server? I'm a cat lover and a server enthusiast. I've operated my own rack of servers at home for almost 20 years. I've helped many friends and strangers with their servers. Oh, and I love cats.
