So, officially, no cards are supported on 10.1 yet. Unofficially, my guess is that they both work just fine, but you'll probably have to do your own validation until Avago does its 10.1 testing. Stephen McConnell -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org= ] On Behalf Of Tobias Oberstein Sent: Saturday, January 17, 2015 11:38 AM To: freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org Subject: LSI 9300-16i supported? Hi, The FreeBSD 10.1 hardware compatibility list https://www.freebsd.org/releases/10.1R/hardware.html for the LSI mpr(4) driver mentions these 3 cards: * LSI SAS 3004 (4 Port SAS) * LSI SAS 3008 (8 Port SAS) * LSI SAS 3108 (8 Port SAS) It does _not_ mention the Avago (LSI) 9300-16i http://www.lsi.com/products/host-bus-adapters/Pages/sas-9300-16i.aspx which is quite new, and features _two_ SAS 3008 chips (Fusion MPT=E2=84=A2 = 2.5). =3D=3D Is this chip supported? Any practical experience? From the FreeBSD source tree (not as a binary blob from LSI .. they mentio= n FreeBSD support for that card, but I don't want to depend on them)? I want to deploy _three_ of those cards to drive 48 SAS disks in a quite high-end server. I need to be really confident that it works, since the box is for a customer and costs 100k Euro. If there is any doubt, I probably go with the LSI SAS 9201-16i http://www.lsi.com/products/host-bus-adapters/pages/lsi-sas-9201-16i.aspx as this seems to be well supported for quite some time. Please correct me i= f I'm wrong and should look for something else .. Thanks a lot for any hints! /Tobias _______________________________________________ freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-scsi To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-scsi-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
