I'm looking to upgrade the controllers in my TrueNAS box to

What's the communities recommendation?
needs to support SFF connectors for a total of 4 SFF connectors,
as I have 16 slots.
We at iX are still using LSI/Broadcom HBAs, just moved from long
discontinued mps(4) to newer mpr(4). And I don't believe the
problem
is directly related to capacity. According to my observations it
may
be Seagate HDDs of/above certain (8TB) generation. We do not use
Seagate HDDs in our products, so about that instability I only
heard
from forums and TrueNAS community user reports.
This is a mfi(4) set of controllers, and a ST80000Nm0045 8TB (CMR)
drive.
Is this a bad combo?

mfi(4) are RAIDs, not HBAs. We do not recommend RAIDs with TrueNAS
due to problems with hot-plug, disk identification, etc. and so have
limited experience with them. But I know some of LSI RAIDs can be
reflashed into equivalent HBAs, so if they share the hardware, I can
speculate that they may share some issues.
I've just noticed "932G" instead of "8000G". It is obviously a bigger
problem than what we heard for HBAs. It looks like a kind of problems
that should not happen to HBAs, since they should not care about disk
capacity.
What does `smartctl -a <device>` report (especially sector sizes)?
