Specifications and service checks
| Catalog subcategory | Storage and disk controllers |
|---|---|
| Exact model / part identifier | LSI00200 (board assembly; verify label/revision) |
| Bus / host interface | PCI Express 2.0 x8 |
| Verified interfaces / protocols | SAS 2.0 / SATA 6 Gb/s; eight internal lanes across two SFF-8087 connectors. |
| OS / driver / firmware caveat | Firmware personality (IT/HBA or IR/RAID) and driver/OS support must match the use case; consult the LSI 9201/9211 HBA guide for supported systems and firmware procedures. Do not cross-flash by board appearance alone. |
| Service note | Record the SAS address, board revision, and firmware mode before service. Use the specified SFF-8087 breakout/backplane wiring and ESD precautions; verify termination and expander/backplane compatibility. |
Installation and archival notes
- Record the board model, revision, serial/date code, firmware, bracket, accessories, and the documentation revision used to identify the unit.
- Confirm the host slot's electrical wiring/keying, required power, supported OS/driver, and any platform or option-ROM restriction in the cited model documentation.
- Use ESD precautions. Do not infer pinout, compatibility, protocol, boot support, or revision equivalence from a similar connector or product-family name.
