Uses a Marvell 88SE6480 chip, 8 SAS/SATA ports via two SFF8087. $110 USD. I've heard minor rumblings WRT the mvsas driver though I don't recall specifics. The board itself is good quality, as with most things SuperMicro.
MINOR!??? I've had this card for 1.5 years, it still not usable (as far as I can discern) as of 2.6.38. Do NOT buy it. Please stop recommending this card for Linux use unless it's to your enemies. Buy a 1068E (3081E) based card, they've been working fine for a long time. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
