Broadcom 9500-8i Tri-Mode HBA
About this item
- Pass-through HBA rather than a RAID card — presents drives directly to the operating system.
- The correct choice for software-defined storage: ZFS, Ceph, Storage Spaces Direct and vSAN.
- Tri-mode connectivity supports SAS, SATA and NVMe on the same ports.
- Using a RAID controller in place of an HBA hides drive health from these systems — worth getting right.
