Is it possible to crossflash an LSI MegaRAID SAS 9261-8i to IT mode? From what I can read, it appears to be able to but I'm not 100% sure. If not, will the passthrough mode work fine for wiping drives using BCWipe Total WipeOut?

Possible - yes but only if there would be a driver for 9261 that supports IT mode and if there would be a firmware for this chip that disables raid functions and offers an HBA mode.

Both is not available, so the answer is no.

Hey, did you have any luck with configuring the passthrough mode? I force the controller to be JBOD, but I cannot set the drives to JBOD.
