CentOS - Oct 2019 - RAID controller recommendations that are supported by RHEL/CentOS 8?

Hi,
I'm currently looking for a RAID controller with BBU/CacheVault and
while LSI MegaRaid controllers worked well in the past apparently they
are no longer supported in RHEL 8:
https://access.redhat.com/discussions/3722151

Does anybody have recommendations for for hardware controllers with
cache that should work in both CentOS 7 and 8 out of the box?

Regards,
  Dennis

Maybe installing ElRepo driver from driver iso can help:

Hi Dennis,

I contacted Broadcom support.

They said

"
The MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i. I would recommend the MegaRAID SAS 9460-8i. The
latest controller also allows you to attach NVMe drives. Please see the
following link for details.

"

thanks
