Got this due to my frustrations with software raid and have to say this is such an easy setup and reliable. Has been running for the last couple months with no issues. Recommend the cache vault to improve performance and reliability in case you are worried about it. I got it at the same time.

Had an older LSI MegaRAID 9240-8i controller who's ports died on me. It only supported PCIE 2.0. This supports PCIE 3.0 and I basically went from 110mbps to 190mpbs in copying files (my gigabit network is now the bottleneck). The only draw back is that it requires you to boot into its BIOS to setup the drives. The older 9240-8i didn't require this, but the 9361 does. It took me about an hour to figure out how to add drives individually (instead of mirroring or cloning the drives in a Raid config). Id buy another one if I had a 2nd PCIE 3.0 slot.

La carte est directement reconnu sur une carte mère récente (asus b650) mais il n'est pas possible d'accéder au menu de configuration de la carte raid sans clavier PS/2 (port absent sur les carte mère moderne). Il vous faudra soit une CM avec port ps/2 soit ajouter un adaptateur sur port pcie.Les claviers usb ne sont pas reconnu !Peut être que ça fonctionne en usb avec la version broadcom qui est plus récente mais 3 fois plus cher.

It came with the slot covers removed and the screws attached to some tape. The screws that sent with it weren't correct size. I had to cannibalize another controller to mount the slot cover. It came with a cache module installed with no battery so that isn't working so I disabled it. Otherwise the controller is working fine.

OK, so the 9361-8i sets up a good RAID array. Performance isn't bad with good transfer speeds. However, to get full performance, you need to purchase the controller cache, battery, and if you want a clean installation, a $30 mounting board. Then, after you get it in, you find the heat problem. The processor runs at 78C unless you upgrade your case fans to 3000RPM industrial models and live with the noise. Search 9361 overheat and read about the problem. LSI and Broadcom have been peddling this card for years. It is time to put together a new card, with adequate cooling and cache that doesn't cost $700 before you purchase the hard drives. I like the setup and performance, but you should be able to get a card that doesn't overheat at half the total expenditure. One final note, the RAID controller should boot quicker. It takes a good 20 seconds before the motherboard can continue booting after the LSI card takes control, initializes, pauses for configuration prompt, and then releases to the BIOS.

The controller BIOS does not recognize SATA hard drives. Even if that were not an issue, I need to license additional software to use it as a RAID 6 and RAID 60 controller. The controller description did not specify the need for additional software licenses to make full use of the card. The card did not come with a softaware CD, so I needed to download all of the drivers and MegaRAID software from the Broadcom web site. In years past (before LSI was bought by Broadcom) the LSI MegaRAID came with everything you needed to run RAID 6 and 60. Unfortunately I didn’t get this installed and find these problems out until this week when the return window closed.

No issues at all! I had the previous 9261-4i variation of this card and had quite a few issues with it conflicting with my server motherboard's CMOS/BIOS. Not so this card. I was able to boot and get into the setup of this card and proceed with RAID array creation. Smooth experience. I am using a AsRock Rack C236M Server/Workstation motherboard and this card is connected to 4 x Seagate SkyHawk 7200 RPM 6TB HDDs in a RAID 10 array.
