My two cents to this topic: The drivers works on W Server 2016 (1607) without an issue. I'm using two Intel sas expanders, I can confirm that works with 12TB WD gold drives. I think all these 3ware-->avago-->broadcom haven't improved much and its all based on LSI IP slight evolution +...

I'm contacting you because your tests of 9750-8i on windows server 2016. Would you mind to tell me the driver/firm version you used? Did you have any problems with the controller so far?

You made my day when I saw this topic. How is your progress, did it work properly? What issues have you had? I have a 9750 as well, running on 2008R2 and its time to swap to 2016, because the limited support on 8th gen intel supermicro mobos. A new controller is rather expensive (and the BBU...

Hi, has anyone tested this disk with old chipsets? I was thinking about picking up one for an old X58 platform, which has lots of pci-e lanes, but no SATAIII. There are not many alternatives that do not include a plugin card f.e. the M6e of plextor which is confirmed boots from MS AHCI, but...

At last I have my Hitachis :P http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1511013 I just wanted to post to confirm 9750SA successfully detects those 2TB drives. My problem right now is 2/9 disks I bought were DOA. So I'll have to wait some days to build a RAID-6. I'll post some numbers given that...

Very Impressive! Given the ammount of money you spend on HDs/case PSU, why that mobo? I would go for an intel 3420 or 5500 series with integrated graphic and better pci-e lanes handling.

@tony: nice. Good to know. @seanG: thank you. For those interested the battery module for 9750 series is: For more information about installing the BBU directly to the 9750 Controller, refer to the LSI document, “MegaRAID iBBU07 Intelligent Battery Backup Unit Quick Installation...

@sean: I'll pick up the battery ;) Did you had to activate TLER to let 9690/9650 detect the Hitachis or were their Ultrastar models? Little brother HDS721010KLA330 (1TB) is listed in compatibility list of 9750. Indeed 9750 "only" expands up to 96 drives not 128. @theinv: my problem with...

Hi, I'm planning to upgrade my storage server with a new raid controller. 8x2TB RAID6. The disk wont have very intensive usage but will be almost 24/7 up (off just a few days/year). After reading, reading and reading I decided for: - 3WARE 9750SA-8I - Hitachi HDS722020ALA330 But I've a...
