For sale are LSI SAS9300-16i 16-Port 12Gb/s SAS/SATA PCIe HBA Controller Cards.Cards have been tested and updated to version 16.00.12.00 IT mode firmware. This is a newer version of firmware than is available on Broadcom's site. It addresses issues caused in previous versions when using SATA drives in TrueNAS. Prior to updating, the cards are wiped clean (with the exception of the manufacturing area) and the updates are performed from EFI Shell. This is the most thorough way to update these cards. We have previously seen issues for users of LSI HBAs in Windows 10 if the cards were not wiped prior to updating, and if the updates were not performed in EFI Shell or DOS. Firmware has been updated to version 16.00.12.00.BIOS has been updated to version 8.37.00.00. x64 BIOS (signed) has been updated to version 18.00.00.00.All cards have been tested in-house and are guaranteed working with 30 day warranty. Cards come with full-height brackets. There are two Mini-SAS HD SFF 8643 to 4x SATA 6G cable lengths available for purchase with this card. Please select the desired length and quantity from the drop down menu. One is RHS36-1894 (labeled C and D) that is roughly 51 centimeters to the longest connector (other connectors are shorter as shown in photos). The other is RHS36-1895 (labeled E and F) that is roughly 69 centimeters to the longest connector (other connectors are shorter as shown in photos). Regarding the six pin power cable: This cable is only needed if your PCIe slot does not provide the required 27w of power. All PCIe 16x slots will be able to provide this. The standard for a PCIe 8x slot is 25w, but many will provide more power than that if needed.
