  • Eight internal ports via two Mini-SAS SFF-8087 connectors
  • 6 Gbps SAS and SATA throughput on PCIe 2.0
  • IT-mode firmware enables direct drive access for ZFS
  • LSI SAS2008 controller with eight-lane internal connectivity

PCIe 2.0 HBA with dual Mini-SAS

This LSI M1015 host bus adapter uses the SAS2008 controller on a PCIe 2.0 slot. It provides two internal Mini-SAS SFF-8087 connectors for SAS or SATA drives at 6 Gbps. The card ships with HBA IT mode firmware for direct drive access.

Ideal for ZFS, TrueNAS CORE and unRAID

The IT mode firmware makes this card a good fit for software RAID platforms that manage redundancy themselves. Builders who need hardware RAID offload or external port connectivity should consider a different model.
