This review is from: IBM 46M0829 PCI-Express x8 SATA III (6.0Gb/s) ServeRAID M5015 SAS RAID Controller
Pros:
This is an LSI based controller under IBM Labeling. It will handle up to 8 drives SAS or SATA III 6gbs directly via 2 sff-8087 or many more via expanders.
Cons:
The IBM Firmware is very slow to initialize the controller, resulting long boot times. The fix it to flash the controller to an LSI 9260 8I. Went to web site for IBM to upgrade firmware was redirected to another site, then every thing I clicked on for this controller was inaccessible. This is the other reason I flashed it to LSI firmware.
