Does anyone have a recommendation for one?
I am looking to connect a LTO tape drive to a FreeBSD 7 or 8 box and I've only
ever used Adaptec 19160 and similar cards and LVDS SCSI.
Our supplier has an LSI SAS3081E-R which is not outrageously expensive, has
anyone used one?
Yes, I've got one, it works fine :)
Ahh, good news, thanks :)
Have you used it with a tape drive?
You may want to flash the non-raid firmware from LSI onto it.
OK thanks.
I just realised it doesn't have any external connectors so I'll have to
find another candidate.
Have a look here, you might find something to bring an internal port out
of the chassis:

However I do see the LSI spec sheet for it lists the chip which is listed in
mpt(4) so I should be able to find something.
