Okay, I know this is a somewhat dangerous experiment but I have this card running a RAID 5 array comprised of 7 WD RE4-GP recertified drives. That's 6 drives in RAID 5 with a hot spare for 9TBs of usable space. I have only had this running for a few weeks but so far I have no problems. LSI utilty for Windows server is great. Performance seems to be quite good as well with write speeds around 80-100mb/s and reads at around 120-130mb/s. So, for a low power controller with no onboard memory, it is doing a respectable job.

Board is worth every penny for the intel 9480s. Features are clean especially with the possibility of a completely remote setup with html5






Well built, powerful. Dual fan setup.

Works well with RDIMM memory and an Epyc 9416 CPU that I had laying around.
