Just bought a lsi 9300-16i. Price seemed pretty cheap for this and I want to make sure I've got a genuine card. I've read that people verify their serial numbers with LSI to make sure they didn't buy a "counterfeit". Has anybody here done that? If so, could you be kind to point me in the...

We have some servers with a MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i, and I'm going through some settings, making sure they're identical between boxes. I noticed the setting "Large IO Support", but I cannot find any documentation on what exactly it is, and what it does. The best I've came across is from this page...

Good Tuesday everyone, Does anyone have any experience in using an OEM branded LSI 9460 in other than OEM hardware? On that "auction site" I'm seeing Dell 9460's, Lenovo 9460's and Fujitsu 9460's. All look 100% identical to the LSI 9460. Do you think they'll be any issues in using them in...
