Ensure the server operating system recognizes the controller and install vendor drivers if necessary for full functionality.
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate cables and compatible drive enclosures when connecting the four external ports; verify server compatibility with PCIe 2.0 x8 and the supported operating systems (Solaris x86, NetWare, Linux, FreeBSD, Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server 2008). For best results, follow vendor instructions for firmware updates and configure battery or flash-backed cache solutions if supported to protect cached writes.
