I thought 2.5 drives needed 5v but the connector is only 12v only. There is a proper connector on the board that's used to supply a optical drive. It's a bit of a odd connector. I have the links to the details I will post later. Think I'm going to make my own connector up. The connector is...

Xeoma in Linux for me, really good on resources out of all the ones I tried. Sent from my MI 5 using Tapatalk

running unraid at the mo, first time user. I liked the way they did the multiple disk pools of different sizes. Seems like a good fit for SMR drives? Still might head back to arch with Qemu tho, looking into LVM with parity disk if there is such a thing? Im just not sure if raid is a good...

updating the SDR did the trick, thanks michathe. Yes you can boot from the controller but as it has no JBOD i had to Raid 0 it. Not handy if i wanted to pull it and read it on another system for what ever reason. All was good until one of the sas connectors cant pick up any drives on the...

ive decided to remove the rms25cb080 controller and use the onboard sas connectors just to get jbod. When i removed the module the BMC reports a sensors reading error. I assume its moaning about the raid module. The fans are at 100%, how do i stop the BMC looking for that sensor? Is there a...

Paul, dont suppose you know what cable you need to use the spare power plugs on the motherboard to power a drive? If not i might have to make one up.

yes i set everything as low as poss, didnt seem to make much difference :). Cpus idle aroun 32, so fans could ramp down a lot more.

Can the Intel rms25cb080 do jbod. That's all I need for now. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I checked the CPU was there. But didn't remove it. I thought I would take a chance and update all the firmwares through the efi. Took ages to get past post, I thought it was knackered. But finally got into BIOS setup and it has the second CPU. Phew. Finally can get on with the Linux install...

I've run into a slight issue. It's only detecting CPU1 not the other. I have swapped memory over from CPU1 to cpu2 and still not picking it up. Reset bios too, not updated it yet tho. Both heatsinks feel warm to touch. Any ideas? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Looks like it came with it. So best to use the hardware controller to setup raid to get best performance. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Just arrived, looks brand new. I cant decide if I should use the hardware raid or Linux software raid. How reliable are the controllers? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Ahh excellent, next deal below £100 and I'll grab some. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I'll use a ssd for the os, I need at least 8tb for media storage. Wondering if a bunch of shucked 4tb Seagate expansion drives would work ok. Don't need fast storage. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
