Not the PCI card of course; you would have such low RAID performance with that one.

The USAS is fine though; its PCIe x8 not x4 by the way; so 2GB/s full duplex for 8 ports. This card is an UIO card, meaning the bracket may be different and the components are on the 'wrong' side. It is still a valid PCI-express x8 device, and works on all OS including FreeBSD and OpenSolaris.

You want to use the controller for ZFS?
