Thank you mobilenvidia. I can now see the LSL configuration. I have enough space/SATA ports in the case now to add SSD drives to the mix.

mobilenvidia, I haven't posted in a while and have finished building my base Asus E35 / M1015 cross flashed to IR mode and it is working. Only issue is that I cannot get to the set up page on the M1015. I saw it once. Is there some other key combo to get to the setup page? Or should...

Anyone redo the cooling of the IBM M1015 yet? I'm looking to add or modify it a bit for the new NAS box that I am building as it just barely clears the top of the case. It does get pretty warm.

Will PM Patrick.

http://board.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=152350 Its very generic from a company in China. Here is a link to my documenting the build. I'm still working on it and am documenting the build on an online magazine as well. I think it was referred to by the CS as an M800. He told me that it...

Thank-you Mobilevidia for your support and help and a great forum!

Mobilevidia, As I am writing an article on building this NAS box with mentioned Asus motherboard decided a few minutes ago to update the BIOS on the motherboad. It worked! I can now see the updated (?) IBM M1015 PCie card. Here is the motherboard link...

Thanks Mobilevidia. Yup tried that yesterday. I'm still getting used to this Asus very graphical / with many pictures Bios. Never seen anything like it before. Here's an Amazon link to it. http://www.amazon.com/Asus-Dual-Core-Fusion-Motherboard-E35M1-I/dp/B004ZMGVUM Here's a...

Thank-you mobilenvidia. I was reading and mostly saw that its better to utilize the card in a server style motherboard. The only PCIe function present in the Foxconn bios is that to force PCIe at the 1X speed. I am headed towards building a new NAS box; documenting the whole build on...

Thank you mobilenvidia. This is what I see running in DOS with the card plugged into the Foxconn intel motherboard. MegaRec -adpList I see the same for: Megarec -cleanflash 0 BTW - when I plug the card into the Asus E-350 one LED blinks and the E-350 doesn't post. The card /...

Thank you mobilenvidia. I typed all the SAS Address letters in capitals as was on the sticker on the card. Its a Foxconn G31MXP Intel chipset motherboard. Booting the box into windows to see what happens. Its destined though to be a FreeNAS box. (hence the FW change).

I finished the write of the "serial number". I was at a DOS prompt and waited a bit after. Powered down the computer. Its a Foxconn Intel with a 16x PCIe 2.0 slot. I gave up on the Asus E-350 when I saw the Pal thing. The card though was recognized just fine with the old firmware on...

Great forum guys! Started initially using an Asus E-350 to update the firmware. I saw the "pal" error so I went to another motherboard (Intel). I did the step by step processs as documented here. Everything looked great until I rebooted. I noticed on reboot that non of the LEDs are...
