He was great was great when I bought a second 8i HBA and it wouldn’t work in a x4 slot. Went through a few things with him and isolated that it was the slot that was faulty. So got a port multiplier instead, which only needs power from the slot and achieved the same results.

I went with theartofserver because I’d rather deal with him than Chinese sellers. He’s great at providing help if you have issues and that’s worth more to me than cheaper.
