Hello,
I just picked up a surplus T710 to set up a home lab (ESXi-based probably). It has a PERC/6i and I need JBOD support. From my reading I think the H200 is my best option to pass the disks directly through to the OS. There seem to be a few different H200 models though: 3J8FW, 47MCV and UO39M (that I've found so far).
So far my Googling has come up with very little info on the differences. I see some have backplates and some don't. Those are easy enough to remove/install though. I'd be putting it in the internal slot, replacing the PERC. I realize I will need new cables...
So - is there anything I need to watch out for? Are all these model numbers equivalent as far as buying an H200 goes?
Thank you,
