    Strange Mellanox problem. No eth, only IB. Flash don't work.

    I'm back guys, sorry for the delay. Tested multiple Gbic and none worked. Then i tested with a twinax and it instantly connected at 10gbps. So it CAN'T do anything bellow 10GB/40GB. 1, 2,5 and 5 don't work ! Thanks for the help and patience ! SOLVED !

    Doing a loopback with the QSFP+ cable ! It seems to detect the link ! And in Windows, the adapter now seems operational !?: Interfaces are configured as 10.0.0.1 and .2 . Strange, maybe it really didn't like my QSFP->SFP+ adapters :oops:

    Already tried ! It indeed confirms it is in eth mode, but it stays braindead. When the card arrived, i put it directly in Pfsense and when i tried to switch from ib to eth the adapter rejected the change.

    As the title summarize, i have an Oracle CX354A dual port that for some reason is hard locked in IB. Even if i flash it (and i've tried dozens of firmwares) with eth image the adapter simply don't work, the interface stay online but braindead: I've tried 4 sets of QSFP->SFP+->10gb and 5gb...

    How to reformat HDD & SSD to 512B Sector Size

    Err, looks like i need help. I can see them just fine, but can't format or sanitize either (disconsider the Micron, the drives in questions are the IBM ones). Error in sg_format: Error in sg_sanitize: Error while trying to initialize the drive in Windows: The drive as seen by LSi...
