If you want I will happily trade it for a perc 6 from a R610, the h200 is much better suited for zfs.

Does anyone know if a PERC H200 is a real RAID controller? I'm about to build a box to CentOS 6.5 (it was Windows...) with RAID 6 on Monday, and this PE R610 has this.... I'm familiar with PERC 6 and 7s, but just dunno 'bout this one.
if it doesn't have a flash-backed or battery-backed write-back cache, then it hardly matters what it is.
the specs on that H200 sound like an LSI 2008 SAS2 HBA chip that has hardware mirroring, but without writeback cache.
I'd configure it for JBOD and do my raid in the OS.
