This sounds strange. What does > wasabi use in their storage products? Wasabi doesn't exist. Your best bet for a supported storage adapter might be a RAID controller even if you don't use RAID mode. The vendors usually keep the host interface pretty stable even as the technology on the disk side changes, so the drivers usually just work with new generations of hardware. Areca is one decent choice. I like LSI considerably less but it will probably work. Thor
