I need to expand my modest FreeNAS and I am out of SATA ports. After reading around here, I understand hardware RAID is a NO-NO. However, all the HBA cards I see (Newegg, filter to LSI, Broadcom, Avago) have the word "RAID" or "MEGARAID" in their descrition. How do I know if those cards can work as JBOD ("IT" mode I guess?). What should I look for?
Where do people get HBA cards that are not RAID?
Thanks!
