    Description

    Dell 4Y5H1 H330 12Gbps SAS PCI-E 3.0 with HBA330 P16 IT mode ZFS FreeNAS unRAID
    Listed for sale are originally Dell 4Y5H1 PERC H330 SAS RAID controller cards that I modified for use with ZFS. They have been cross-flashed with Dell HBA330 IT (Initiator Target) firmware version P16 (specifically 16.00.11.00). I also flashed the LSI/Avago MPTSAS2 BIOS ROM version 08.37.02.00 and UEFI 18.00.03.00 so that it is easier to access the controller's ROM without booting an OS.
    THIS CARDS HAVE BEEN
    MODIFIED
    WITH IT MODE FIRMWARE AND
    NO LONGER HAVE RAID FUNCTIONALITY
    .
    Includes BOTH full / standard and half / low profile PCIe brackets as pictured.
    Dell HBA330 IT mode firmware version P16 (16.00.11.00)
    MPTSAS2 BIOS ROM flashed version 08.37.02.00
    MPTSAS2 UEFI ROM flashed version 18.00.03.00
    Original SAS address preserved
    These HBA controllers are based on the LSI SAS3008 SAS controller chipset and support PCI-E 3.0 specifications with x8 lanes, providing up to 7880MB/sec bandwidth between this card and your system! The controller has 2 SFF-8643 connectors, each carrying 4x 12Gbps SAS lanes. You will need a compatible cable to connect these to your hard drives or a backplane.
    These cards are fully tested in my Supermicro server running ZFS on Linux (ZoL), but this setup is also ideal for other ZFS setups, FreeNAS, unRAID, Proxmox VE, etc. I have fully tested them using all 8 SAS lanes.

    Why buy from the Art of Server?
    I can provide technical support if you have problems
    I'm aware of counterfeit products on the market, and I make every effort to ensure that what I sell are not counterfeit.
    I ship fast, usually same or next business day!
    I have a YouTube channel with many helpful videos. Look for "Art of Server" on YouTube. (sorry, I can't link per eBay policy)
    I fully test the HBAs I sell. See my testing process on YouTube.
    I clean the server components I sell. You will not receive something covered in dust, or have unwanted stickers/labels, etc.
    I ship electronic parts in proper anti-static bags (not the pink stuff) with bubble wrap or foam protection where needed.
    I am a server enthusiast and IT professional that has worked with many brands of servers and have also built custom servers, not just someone selling computer parts. I love what I do! :-)
    I've used ZFS for many years. I'm familiar with ZFS on Linux, FreeNAS, and many of the technologies commonly used by other enthusiasts.
    I love cats. How can you deny my cute, cuddly charm?
    Who is the Art of Server?
    I'm a cat lover and a server enthusiast. I've operated my own rack of servers at home for almost 20 years. I've helped many friends and strangers with their servers. So, one day, I thought why not offer pre-flashed IT mode / HBA SAS controllers on eBay to help others with their server build? Since then, I've also added other "interesting" items to my eBay store that I think other server/computer enthusiasts would like. Oh, and I love cats. :-)
