- Works out of the box on FreeBSD 11 - No issues with 4Kn drives




Speed Price Features Linux support


No issues, was able to import my ZFS array without any problems.






This card replaced three 8 disk SAS cards in my system. This card simply just works without any issue. I have been running it for about 8 months with 21 data disks and 3 parity disks in a FlexRAID configuration that recalculates parity every 24 hours. Given how dynamic some of my data is the parity recalculation cycles can be a couple hours long and this card is rock solid with that really heavy i/o.




- Ease of setup - Speed / functionality


Easy installation, drivers neatly labeled in folders, comes with a low-profile bracket, auto-detected by Windows 8, automatically plays well with esata port multiplier. With no change in other hardware, write speeds over esata are consistently 2-3 times as high as with an old Silicon Image Sil3112 chipset card.
