Hi,

this motherboard comes with Broadcom 3008 SAS3 IT mode controller

is it compatible with proxmox\ceph ?

Yes, it is.
We run Broadcom SAS 9300-8i HBAs, which are also based on your controller chip - without any issues so far.
Basically the question is: Is your hardware supported by your operating system? In case of a Proxmox/Debian installation the answer is "yes".
