Google is your friend.  I found this:

http://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/m1015-vs-m1115.15799/

which seems to indicate that the M1115 is close-enough to the M1015 so that you can flash it to IT and have it look like an mpt_sas(7D) board.

Some of these aren't as flash-friendly, but mr_sas(7D) can drive them (e.g. the Dell H310 card).  If you can flash it to IT and have it be driven by mpt_sas(7D), you're likely in better shape, however.

Hope this helps,
