Gea,
Thanks for the FYI, I know all too well I should have LSI SAS HBAs but I?m
trying to st
Sata/AHCI 6G is fast and stable so the S3700 should work perfectly
A much faster solution in an AiO setup are NVMes like a P750, P3600 or
P3700
but the current NVMe driver gives problems in pass-through mode under ESXi

Gea,
Thanks for the FYI, I know all too well I should have LSI SAS HBAs but I’m
trying to stay within the limits of what Softlayer has on the self. My current
boxes at Softlayer I bought and shipped them the correct controllers.
Anyways I’m going to try out the JBOD mode of the 9361 to start
The LSI megaRAID 9361 is a hardware raid controller - the wrong type for
ZFS.
You want a HBA controller best with a raidless IT firmware with an LSI
2008 or 3008 chipset
like the LSI 9207 or 9003 or Sata in AHCI mode.
Your options:
- replace the 9361 with an HBA
or
- use it as a bootdevice
