According to a post on hardforum.com, it does not work. Instead, I'd
recommend the LSI SAS3442E-R (if you don't mind that it only has 4
internal ports). It's available on eBay fo

I have a pool, "huge", composed of one six-disk raidz2 vdev and a log
device. I failed to plug in one disk when I took the machine down to
plug in the log device, and booted all the way before I realized this,
so the raidz2 vdev was rightly listed as degraded. Then I brought the
machine down, plu
