FreeNAS suggests an "HBA" only card (i.e. a card that does not have built-in RAID). This card is of the HBA type. Initially, my FreeNAS server had 6 x 4TB WD Red NAS drives in a ZFS2 (RAID with 2 parity drives, for 16TB net storage). Unfortunately, I was running out of space and needed to add another two 4TB drives. The motherboard I am using has 8 SATA connectors, so with 1 SSD boot drive and 6x4TB drives, that is 7 total. Needless to say, adding two more drives wasn't possible. Note: If you are familiar with FreeNAS, you know you can boot off a flash drive, but the speed isn't that great and I don't like the reliability of flashdrives for this purpose, so I chose a cheap SSD as a boot drive. MUCH faster on boot! No speed difference in operation. SSDs tend to be more reliable. You can do the cost/benefit analysis for your own needs/risk acceptance. I purchased this card because it was on the FreeNAS compatible list. I backed up my NAS to various external drives I have (FreeNAS didn't/doesn't have the ability to add drives to an existing ZFS RAID array, YET), installed the card, attached all 8 drives to the card, and, voila(!), FreeNAS saw the drives! I created the new ZFS2 array with all 8 drives, copied all ~15TB of data back to the NAS and everything has been working fine ever since. If you have a FreeNAS server, I can say, from my experience, that this card will work well. I cannot say how FAST it is compared to other cards, but it works well for my needs (it can handle a full gigabit network connection at full speed (105-112MB/sec with large file transfers and with ethernet's overhead)). If you have one of the newer 2.5, 5, or even 10Gb networks, then you might be able to saturate it. I can't with my 1Gb network. It has been 100% reliable to date (about 1 year so far). Recommended! Review: Works as advertised - This is being used on an old Z170 Intel chipset to add extra SATA ports for a "RAID5" aka Windows 10 Parity storage space for 5, 6TB NAS rated HDDs. Unlike the simple "add SATA port" cards that only relocated the motherboard SATA ports to that card, this actually adds additional SATA ports. In my case, I moved the HDDs from the motherboard to this card. The drives previously used the Intel RAID5 BIOS. That provided a large 512 byte sector drive. However, to add a 2TB M2 drive I needed to use two of the SATA ports, thus the reason for this addition. I used Macrium Reflect to backup all the BIOS drives before the change to an external 20TB USB drive. I then restored the 1TB C boot drive along with the hidden repair partitions to the M2 drive. However, I did run into an issue restoring the large Z 20TB drive, as this new Windows partition used 8k blocks instead of 512. Thankfully Macrium lets you mount the Image as a read only drive, and as this was just used for data, there was no issue for special permissions. I then used Windows copy to copy from that image drive to the new Z drive. After a few days, it completed successfully. After a week it is working flawlessly. For the price it is the best solution I could come up for more SATA ports. ## Features - New - Retail - 1-Year Limited Warranty - LSI LSI00301 - LSI LSI00301 Logic Controller Card SAS 9207-8i 8Port Internal SAS/SATA 6Gb/s PCI Express Single ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008J49G9A | | Best Sellers Rank | #30 in RAID Controllers | | Brand | LSI Logic | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 88 Reviews | | Hardware Interface | PCIE x 8 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 10"L x 6"W x 1"H | | Item Type Name | Host bus adapter | | Item Weight | 10.56 ounces | | Manufacturer | LSI | | Mfr Part Number | LSI00301 | | Model Number | PCELPN-53979610 | | Operating System | Windows, Linux, macOS | | Product Dimensions | 10"L x 6"W x 1"H | | Style | Classic | | Style Name | Classic | | UPC | 112040007007 799632220268 191120097596 115970714434 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LSI Logic - **Hardware Interface:** PCIE x 8 - **Item Weight:** 10.56 ounces - **Product Dimensions:** 10"L x 6"W x 1"H - **Style:** Classic ## Images ![LSI Logic Controller Card LSI00301 SAS 9207-8i 8Port Internal SAS/SATA 6Gb/s PCI Express Single Retail - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WRdLn2x1L.jpg) ![LSI Logic Controller Card LSI00301 SAS 9207-8i 8Port Internal SAS/SATA 6Gb/s PCI Express Single Retail - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61clSUqg8eL.jpg) ![LSI Logic Controller Card LSI00301 SAS 9207-8i 8Port Internal SAS/SATA 6Gb/s PCI Express Single Retail - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61IKBPKfe8L.jpg) ![LSI Logic Controller Card LSI00301 SAS 9207-8i 8Port Internal SAS/SATA 6Gb/s PCI Express Single Retail - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51c0mL-FZ+L.jpg) ![LSI Logic Controller Card LSI00301 SAS 9207-8i 8Port Internal SAS/SATA 6Gb/s PCI Express Single Retail - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51M7LhAu0bL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well with FreeNAS *by G***J on December 14, 2019* I purchased this card about a year ago for a FreeNAS server I have in my "home office".

Mine came in a clamshell like packaging with no box. They claim that these cards are new, it's hard to tell as mine came in with all the labels and such intact (Some have reported that theirs appeared used). Further research of these cards yields (Google "LSI SAS2 2308 Mustang" - Which is what device manager sees this card as) that this is an OEM card, as I found the drivers for this card on a Dell support website as well as the HP support website (the latest drivers I could find for this card were Windows 8.1). This is not a bad thing, keep in mind that SAS cards can be very expensive if you were to buy these at retail as SAS is aimed more at the IT/Enterprise market. However also keep in mind that you MAY not be able to get Support from LSI (Broadcom) if this card were to fail on you. I'm not sure what kind of support you will get from the vendor other than the standard return to Amazon (if purchased from a fulfilled by Amazon, which is what I would recommend). What is the difference between SAS and SATA? In short, research has suggested that SAS has an advantage when it comes to multiple people accessing data on disk, SAS can both send and receive data at the same time while SATA cannot (SATA can only send or receive at once). Which means SAS is a good option for people looking to build a NAS system, but you MUST use SAS drives, if you use SATA to SAS cables, you are limited to SATA. Should I buy this card? If you are looking to add more SATA drives to your computer or want to build an affordable SAS NAS system, then yes. If you are looking for something faster than SATA, then a PCI Express to NVMe card might be a better option for you. The Good: Very affordable SAS card, SAS is a far more superior standard than SATA and is backwards compatible with SATA. Search Mini SAS to SATA on Amazon for adaptors. Yes, this has Mini SAS connectors on it also if you were wondering. LSI (its Broadcom now) if you are watching, there IS a market for affordable new SAS cards. Windows and Linux compatible, can't comment on Mac support. Tried on Windows 11 and Fedora Can support 8 Drives. Good for a NAS setup. The BAD: - This is not a Raid compatible card, it's called a HBA (Host bus adaptor), which means there is NO hardware raid capabilities on this card, not really a bad thing as there is plenty of software solutions around this, Windows, and Linux both have software implementations. I can't comment on if there is a speed difference between Software and hardware RAID. - It is only 6GB/s card, plenty good for the home market, not much faster than current SATA (see the difference between SAS and SATA). 12 GB/s and 22 GB/s are more recent standards, probably very expensive. - Support on this card is iffy at best, haven't had to use it yet. - SAS drives can be expensive. Conclusion: If you're wanting to make a NAS machine or simply add more SATA disk drives, then this is the card for you. It's much better than those cheap SATA cards out there and gives you a pathway to start using SAS drives in your computer or NAS. Overall, I'm very happy with this card. ## Frequently Bought Together - LSI Logic Controller Card LSI00301 SAS 9207-8i 8Port Internal SAS/SATA 6Gb/s PCI Express Single Retail - ADCAUDX Mini-SAS to SAS Cable: 0.5M SFF-8087 to SAS SFF-8087 to SFF-8482 4X SAS with SATA-Power Adapter Cable (1.6FT) - ADCAUDX 2Pack Mini SAS to SATA Cable: 0.5M SFF-8087 to SATA Forward Breakout Cable SFF8087 to 4 SATA, SAS Controller to Hard Drive(1.6FT) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/3750144-lsi-logic-controller-card-lsi00301-sas-9207-8i-8port-internal](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/3750144-lsi-logic-controller-card-lsi00301-sas-9207-8i-8port-internal) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
