HBA or SATA PCIe card FSC TX150 S7 Server
Hello,
we have a old FSC TX150 S7 Server and need more disk space.
So we want to by a https://www.icydock.com/goods.php?id=153.
The diskspace is used as fileserver / simple HDD no SSD and the network
connection is 1Gbit round about 100mb/s.
So I think sata 3.0 is just more speed then needed.
I want to use it as software raid.
So far so good.
The LSI 1068e (aka FSC D2607-A11) is offical supported by FSC but not in
IT-mode (JBOD).
So I'am not sure if I use the LSI 1068e and flash a unoffical firmware
(the original LSI one) or to use a simple SATA extension card.
Can someone recommend a SATA extension card for server usage?
What's about performence?
I'am not sure if a SATA extension card for lets say 50€ can have the
same read/write speed as a LSI HBA card in JBOD / software raid mode?
Best regards
