I installed a Supermicro AOC-USASLP-L8i card here some days ago. Should be even cheaper than the ones you mentioned and comes with a LSI chip supported by mpt driver: mpt0@pci0:6:0:0: class=0x010000 card=0xa68015d9 chip=0x00581000 rev=0x08 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'LSI Logic (Was: Symbios Logic, NCR)' device = 'SAS 3000 series, 8-port with 1068E -StorPort' class = mass storage subclass = SCSI I only installed it last week and cannot comment much on performance and stability up to now. cu Gerrit
