Core Product Features

  1. PCIe 2.0‑generation SAS RAID‑controller card built‑on SAS2308 chip, IBM OEM variant (M1115). Out‑of‑factory it runs in IR (RAID)‑mode, supporting hardware RAID‑0, RAID‑1, RAID‑10 for conventional file servers. It can be re‑flashed to IT pass‑through firmware to become an HBA for ZFS, TrueNAS, FreeNAS, unRAID NAS storage.
  2. PCIe 2.0 x8 bandwidth, two SFF‑8087 internal ports supporting up to 8 SATA/SAS hard‑disk drives mounted inside the server chassis.
  3. Dual‑mode capability:
    • IR‑RAID mode: hardware‑level RAID functions for standard business servers.
    • IT‑mode (after firmware flash): pass‑through mode, OS fully controls each individual disk for software‑defined‑RAID (ZFS‑RAID‑Z, md‑raid), there is no hardware‑RAID logic.
  4. Fan‑less passive black heat‑sink, zero‑noise operation, stable for 24/7 long‑term continuous runtime in rack‑mounted storage servers. It includes full‑height and low‑profile mounting brackets for different chassis sizes.
  5. Hot‑swap available for internal hard‑drives after IT‑mode flash; all physical disks are exposed directly to the host OS.
  6. Thanks to its low cost and flash‑able firmware, it is a popular budget‑grade option for DIY NAS builders.

Application Scenarios

  1. Default IR‑RAID mode: Small‑enterprise file‑servers that require hardware RAID‑0/1/10.
  2. IT‑flashed HBA mode: ZFS/TrueNAS/FreeNAS in‑chassis NAS, media‑archival storage, home‑lab 8‑bay storage servers.
