I am experiencing problems with this controller as well.
All I want to do is clone the system disk and place the clone in an identical box and boot up. The new box can't access the disk and gives error that the disk cable may not be connected. Works perfectly in an older Compaq server that doesn't have Smart Array.

 

Used TI8 on many smart array 6xx series, including 6i, 6402, 641, and 642 with no issues what so ever.

 

I have restored images onto an HP proliant DL360 server and it detect the array no problems.

Never had any problems with the array part. The only thing is the network part where it sometimes struggles getting a DHCP address.
