Preemptively deleted my post.
I picked up one of these for $12 from a new seller. Has the normal Inspir firmware on it.
The device is seen in EFI, Windows and Linux, but P3~P16 sas3flash in EFI / Linux can't see the device... Not sure what else I can try.
CSM, Above 4G disabled, ASPM disabled.

That post was helpful and pushed my in the right direction. Used megarec to clear the flash, then pushed the "empty" SBR from this blog Crossflash Fujitsu D3307 to LSI SAS9300 in IT Mode - Blog.2-CPU.de
Afterwards I was able to directly flash 16.00.12 with sas3flash in EFI mode and set the correct SAS address.
Thanks!
Edit: As a side note, I messaged the seller asking about this and they gave me a refund without me asking. So I guess it's free now lol.
