 @scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now: You know what is terrible about working in IT, is going to get into bed and wondering "was there something that I was supposed to be doing before I called it a day?"

Think I found a LSI MegaRAID 9260-4i SAS Raid Controller PCI-E maybe the 8i model. Both look like they support ESXi and 4tb SATA
