Hello,
I have a SATA controller card (Syba SI-PEX40064) with a Marvell 88SE9215 chipset that is not recognized by either FreeNAS 8 or the latest nightly build (9.1.x). Is there any way to add a driver for this chipset, or is there any planned support?
I know the IBM 1015 is the recommended solution, but I was hoping to get something cheaper since I don't need the performance with 7200 RPM drives. I have access to free IBM 5014 controllers but apparently these do not allow drive passthrough and I would like to use ZFS rather than hardware RAID. If necessary I can buy a M1015, but just wanted to see if there was a workaround first.
Thanks!
