no reason that it shouldn't. but googling says that it can't be flashed to IT mode.
it'll work, but any/most NAS OS cannot fully utilize the drives and card since the OS can't manage the raid through it.

best to find cards from ebay. Kinda hard to find IT mode cards from lazatda or peeshop. if jumpa, kejap je habis

It's still M5015. one way to kinda emulate IT mode is to create multiple RAID0 for every single one of drives, so it kinda looks like JBOD.

this is fine, one of the cheapest that I can find I think ATM:

if you need more ports, connect the two port above to the two bottom port in the card below

then you're left with 6x24 sata ports. perfect for 24 sata drives, enough to last you for a while I reckon biggrin.gif



any/most of these are ok

Yes no difference

Dell h200 kind is hugely popular. Too bad it's expensive as shit now. Wasn't even mr80 last time. Blame chia mining 🤣
