I'm after a Dell PERC H200, ideally, if it is already flashed with LSI HBA IT firmware that's a bonus!

 

I can't seem to find anything here in NZ only eBay so if someone has one kicking about that they are willing to part with at a reasonable price, I would be keen.

 

Or if someone knows where in NZ to locate one pre-flashed that would also be great.

Does it have to be the H200.

This is on ebay , Don't know your price range.

I got one of these off aliexpress and flashed it (was very easy to do) and has been rock solid in my unraid server.

I guess it doesn't have to be, I was only looking at the H200 because it will replace the H700 that I currently have in this R510 and the port configuration is the same as the H700

 

This is the H700 currently,

 

 

 

 

 

 

And the H200

As you have posted ebay or ali express might be my best option.

I have tow dell R710 servers I am going to sell once we are out of lvl4

 

They both have H700 RAID cards if that helps, I am not sure if they are built in or PCIE

 

If it is suitable I can have a better look.

 

Cheers

From what I have read I cant use the H700 as it the card needs to be re flashed to IT mode, and the H700 Doesnt support this  ( I have spent some time searching for a way with the H700 and every where i read its not supported)

 

The only cards that are supported Are the H310 and H200, Ideally the H200 would be nice as it could go back in to the Storage slot and leave me with acouple of spare PCIE slots.

An IT mode flashed card won't work in the storage slot, as it won't have any dell firmware on it (IT mode normally puts LSI firmware on the cards)

I have a H200 flashed in IT Mode Flash card in my Dell R510 storage slot working great for unraid. Had to get it imported from US. This seller is a great source of parts.

Same here in my R510, doesn't seem to be picky like the R710 which supposedly won't even take certain variants of the H200.

 

 

 

Note to OP you can actually fit and use H310 in the slot for the R510 but it pushes the bracket in the middle out of the way and prevents any cards being used in the storage slot, this is what I did until I had to swap it to an H200 to install my PCI-E SSD's. (corrected)

This is exactly what I am planning on doing, I have just picked up an R510 for this exact reason.

 

I did look at that guy on eBay haven't made the jump yet.

Yes I see that, I hat an HP H240 in there but it just would not pass anything through from the backplane in the R510, hence the reason I'm after the H200 or H310.

i think the H310 has the mini sas ports on the wrong direction. get the H200, it works great.
