Good Morning,
Having just got in on the E5-2670 deals, I'm looking to clean up and optimize my storage server... and I suppose to a degree simplify it.
I will be re-installing unraid on the box, which means any card needs to support IT mode (AFAIK). Anyways, what I currently have is an IBM M1015 connect to an HP Expander running 20 (soon to be 24) drives. Now, afaik the M1015 is a PCIe 2.0 card. My question is will I see a performance jump if I purchased a PCIe 3.0 controller card?
If so, any suggestions on cards? I was looking at the HP H200... thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
