Review: Works out of the box for proxmox host - Works out of the box for proxmox host. I zip tied a 40mm 12v fan to the heatsink and plugged into my mb fan header. All these Lsi server cards can get very hot. When passing through host to truenas VM it locked up the host unless I made the following changes to proxmox 9.1: How I pass through an HBA on the host: 1. Enable vfio on host: *This allows distinct iommu groups for devices to go in, so passing through one doesn't affect another, presuming it's not in the same group. cat >> /etc/modules  /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-mpt3sas.conf 3. Run the following: update-initramfs -u -k all proxmox-boot-tool refresh reboot 4. Run the following to verify your HBA is in its own iommu group: for g in /sys/kernel/iommu_groups/*; do echo "Group ${g##*/}:"; for d in $g/devices/*; do lspci -nns "${d##*/}"; done; done 5. Bind to the vm in the gui and try to boot it. a. It's advised by AI to disable "rom bar" when adding lsi controllers. 6. If starting the vm freezes the host, and looking at the host console(monitor output) you see that it unloaded the default raid/hba driver without issue but never bound to vfio, the issue is likely needing to disable FLR. 7. To disable FLR: create /etc/modprobe.d/vfio-reset.conf a. paste this in it: options vfio-pci disable_idle_d3=1 disable_vga=1 disable_flr=1 8. Add these to the end of the line in /etc/kernel/cmdline: intel_iommu=on iommu=pt pcie_aspm=off pci=noaer 9. Run the following again: update-initramfs -u -k all proxmox-boot-tool refresh reboot
Review: Card works and some things to look out for - Works as expected. Good price as well. This works nicely with Proxmox and passing it to TrueNAS. It has an initial boot from the host machine, then the Proxmox server boots as expected. Something that helped TrueNAS boot without pausing because of the Avago BIOS loading from the controller is to disable Rom-Bar. This immediately fixed the issue and let the drives be passed as expected to TrueNAS. 2nd thing: I had trouble with the card not being available even after enabling all the required bios settings and loading the correct info in the kernal. Turns out the card was very slightly out of the pci slot. I'm guessing 1/64th of a inch because it was not visibly out of the slot. So if you happen to run into the card not being offered as a RAW device when mounting it in Proxmox to your TrueNas VM, this could be the issue. (you'll know immediately because the Proxmox server you are using won't show the splash for the Avago BIOS loading up from the card if it's not seated properly when booting up.) Hope this helps someone!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works out of the box for proxmox host

My Debian server sees this right out of the box and detects all the drives I plug into it. No complaints!
