Hi,
I'm building a custom rack mount storage server (it's my first time) and I choose a Chenbro RM23612 chassis (6GB/s backplane with 3 mini-sas ports) for this. For this build, I need my hard drives to show as one to the OS and I don't need redundancy: on internet I found that JBOD should be fine for this, and I read that if a disk fails, it does not compromise others (unlike RAID0). Now I searched on internet for some controllers and I found that the LSI 9211-8i it's a good card but it is not clear how to set up a JBOD (or even if it can) with this card.
So I'm asking advice on how to make a JBOD, which controllers are right for me.
Thanks in advance.
