I know there was similiar post but it was more about external disc enclosure. Smart Array P822 with HBA Mode? I would like to use internal 12x3,5" cage of the DL360g8. If P822 8i RAID card in HBA a mode connected to the expander of the cage, which is also 8i ( I assume as this server is comaptible with that card), is that OK for ZFS? What about those "internal expanders" of P822 user @ewwhite mentioned in the linked thread?

There's no reason to use a P822 on a server like that. Is there anything wrong with the internal P420i controller?
The P420i controller will work very well in HBA mode if you're using SAS disks. If you use SATA drives, you're better off using multiple RAID0 groups. This is specific to the onboard controller.
