The controller has 2 SFF-8654 8i connector, each carrying 8 SAS-3 lanes. You will need a compatible cable to connect these to your hard drives or backplane. CAUTION: Please note that SFF-8654 8i cables have limited selection. Please be sure you are able to find the cables you need before ordering this card. These cards are fully tested in my Supermicro server running ZFS on Linux (ZoL), but this setup is also ideal for other ZFS setups, TrueNAS, unRAID, Proxmox VE, etc. I have fully tested them using all 8 SAS lanes. Not exactly the HBA / IT mode adapter you were looking for? Check out the HBA section at my ebay store here. Feel free to ask any questions. 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. :-)
