Hi, I once tried to cross-flash a HP H220 (IIRC) to LSI 2008 (or whatever), = because HP would not update the firmware (anymore) and obviously does = not bother about FreeBSD (never did=E2=80=A6). It actually worked, but only with a very old version of LSI=E2=80=99s = flash tools (newer versions refused to do it). Of course, the HBA did not work better afterwards and the only =E2=80=9Efi= x=E2=80=9C was to buy actual LSI hardware. IIRC, for our Supermicro Servers, the firmware is/was really identical, = except for a vendor-string (which a co-worker changed using a = hex-editor). But you can never be too sure about that and the best (and only IMO) way = is to avoid OEM HBAs like the plague and buy them directly from the = people who designed the hardware in the first place. --Apple-Mail=_F0DC543B-4270-4AB1-A8FD-0E4FEF29A9F3--
