I bought a used LSI 9240 8i RAID controller card to use in my HP z820.
Presently I have a 16 tb RAID 0 running off the motherboard. It is fast enough, but I assume it uses CPU resources to control the RAID. Sometimes I seem to have delays processing frames in Davinci Resolve, even playing PRORES 4444 2k files.
Does anyone know if this RAID controller card will create a hardware RAID? Or, does it just duplicate the system I'm already running? And, can one use it in a z820 running windows 10.
I've contacted tech support at broadcom, but, the responder didn't seem to really understand this product, or what a z820 is...
Any help or suggestions is appreciated. Thank you.
