This is a great, reliable HBA card. Unlike other LIS cards (like the 9211), this does not have IR mode and operates exclusively in IT mode. For me, using unRAID, that's perfect, as it doesn't require me to make any firmware changes. I did, however, flash the 9211-8i IT firmware on here, though, just to be current. Protip: If using in unRAID, you can also remove the BIOS to speed the boot time up.

The card is exactly what I needed to connect 4 SAS drives to my pc, with room for 4 more when I get a second cable. My only issue was that this card only comes with the shown low profile bracket, however I knew this when I purchased the unit and simply removed the low profile bracket and replaced it with a full height one that would allow it to be screwed in to my case expansion slot properly.

Great card! Works straight of the bat. My product was flashed with 11.something firmware, which I decided to flash myself to the latest version of 20.something. However, I did verify that it would've worked even without having to update the firmware.

If you want a JBOD card, I would recommend this one to you. I installed it using 6 4tb NAS drives and it works great!

Works great out of the box for a JBOD config with Unraid.
