  1. So I have this controller from . I want to flip some bits in the for great good. But when I do, the flashing utility fails.

    Does anyone have a clue how they might checksum their firmware?

    It uses the ASM1053E chip.

  2. @parvXm Yes, it does fit eight 3.5 drives plus two 2.5.

    If you prefer stability and price over performance then look for an older #SuperMicro board, ideally with a proper CPU and memory on board already.

    Also try to get your hand on an old raid controller like a #MegaRAID #LSI 9240-8i, ideally something that can be flashed into IT mode so it acts as pure #HBA to work with #ZFS.

    DON'T fall for cheap PCIe SATA adapters with #ASMedia or similar crap chips on.
