Great card, but runs hot
This is a great card. It was pretty much plug and play. However, this runs SUPER hot. I tried to zip tie an 80mm fan to it, but didn't have much luck keeping the temps down. I got this to use in my unraid box. I have everything shoved into a server case and in a rack. I can't get good enough ventilation in there. It's worth it and will use it for another project

saved a 10yr old system
Have a 10 year old mainboard with 10 sata connectors on it divided on two controllers. One of the controllers died and literally halted my system. I installed this card, as it would have cost a lot more to build a new 10 sata system or even find a replacement mobo 10 sata connectors. This card got me workung again with my 40TB ZFS system. In the future when I am ready to upgade the mobo, I can continue using this card in the next system.In case anyone else needs to import their pool, I hope you use vdevs for easy migration. All I had to do was update the zfs config with each disks new vdev id(easy to find with serial #s), udevadm trigger and import the pool by vdev id. Done, back in business as though nothing happened.One other thing that may happen, installing this card could cause a rename of your nic, in ubuntu you need to ifconfig to get new id and then edit netplan yml file in etc, reload nic with netplan try ... you'll be all set.

Good quality and did the job
The SXTAIGOOD SAS9300-16i LSI 9300-16i16-Port 12Gb/s SAS-3 controller board introduced me to a PNP solution for my SATA drives.It can be used in RAID, JBOD.I am very pleased with it.Make sure you plug in the 12V connector as they tell you it;s not advisable to run the card without it.I mounted a 60mm fan to the heatsink because if you are running this in a PC and not a server you do not in any way have the proper airflow to keep that heatsink cool.I would buy another if needed.

SAS cable sets not included
If you are getting this for SAS drives, find a card without cables and buy the cables. These are SATA cables only. (SAS uses one connector for both power and data, and the data-only SATA cables will not connect to the SAS drives.)Card works fine with UnRaid and even SAS works once you get the right cables.

IT Mode out of the Box
Worked great, the cables that came with were just the right length for my Rosewill 15 Bay 4u rack. All 16 drives are addressable, the server was up and running the same day without running any binaries or flashing firmware. TrueNAS Scale Bluefin*
