Supermicro's AOC-USAS-H8iR uses LSI1078: http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/AOC-USAS-H8iR.cfm Dell PERC 6/i is based on LSI1078 as well. http://www.dell.com/content/topics/topic.aspx/global/products/pvaul/topics/= en/us/raid_controller?c=3Dus&l=3Den&cs=3D555 However, these cards are full-blown RAID controllers with their own CPU, memory and corresponding price. > =A0I've seen that number in the comments in one of the mf* drivers (think= it was mfi). Yes, it is indeed mfi that supports LSI1078. > How does one determine which actual chipset is in which controller? =A0Do= they have that buried in the docs somewhere? The docs, if you're lucky. Cards listed above mention controller chip explicitly on the product pages. --Artem
