PCI NVME 8x card suggestions?

Well, titles says it pretty much. I want to install a 8x nvme pci car don my linux flame system but unsure which one will be compatible OS wise. What is the smarter crowd using?

High point 7140 for PCIe3
High point 7540 for PCIe4

If you have a P620, make sure that the Highpoint cards are compatible if you’re planning on using the hardware raid functions. If you’re just going to zfs the drives, it’s not a big deal, but there’s a hardware incompatibility between some of their cards and P620’s.

It’s going into a hpz840 running centos 8.6/8.8. But we do ahve some p620’s, so i’ll be sure to keep you advice close.

Neither of which are support by ADSK, and unless you are using “centos” generically, it is a dead end-of-life OS.

These are the cards that are NOT compatible with P620’s for future reference.

@Frank - the Highpoint 7140 will work just fine in a z840.
Buy the highest capacity NVMe sticks that you can afford.

It’s a filmlight/baselight system, so I am just making sure it works with their “custom” os distro.
