This card replaced three 8 disk SAS cards in my system. This card simply just works without any issue. I have been running it for about 8 months with 21 data disks and 3 parity disks in a FlexRAID configuration that recalculates parity every 24 hours. Given how dynamic some of my data is the parity recalculation cycles can be a couple hours long and this card is rock solid with that really heavy i/o.

Works with my desktop motherboard. Worked right out of the box with little effort. Fast. Using ArgusMonitor benchmark it reads 26% (414 Mb/s vs 329Mb/s) faster, but writes 8% slower (381Mb/s vs. 416Mb/s) than the on-board Intel RAID controller in a 4x2TB RAID 0 array. I can expand to more drives later.

I built a NAS with 2 of these cards and I am getting excellent performance with cheap 5400rpm 4k sector "green" drives. Solaris 11 express recognized it immediately. This is the card you want for your zfs RAIDz array.
