From reading many posts, it seems like the IBM M1015 is a very popular choice.
I was wondering if there are any cheaper alternatives?
I'm looking for a card that works with ESXi pass through, and supports 8 sata hard drives. I would most likely use it in IT mode and eventually want to use it for ZFS.
Would this still be the IBM M1015? I see a lot of other ebay generated "recommended" listings by adaptec, dell, which are all half the price...
Any advice would be great. Thanks.
