    SC846 power dead, what are my options?

    Tried a Thermaltake 700W PS this time (three non-modular power cables with a total of five 4pin connectors). Only 15-17 disk could spin up o_O My guess is, the wires are much too thin (outer 1.75 and 2mm) for this amount of power. The PDB cables are thicker (outer 2.5mm) and much shorter. I...

    SC846 power dead, what are my options?

    https://knowledgebase.45drives.com/kb/start-up-power-draw/ If all 24 disks start at the same time, I expect >700W for about 5s. Maybe good PSU can deliver more that specifiied for some time.

    SC846 power dead, what are my options?

    Only one 500W?? What model is that? 24 disk spinup needs >50A on 12V.. that alone is more than 500W. Are you doing staggered spinup somehow? In this thread: 1000W PS not enough, red lights = power shortage

    SC846 power dead, what are my options?

    Been using my SC846 for a few years. No motherboard, shorted ATX pin. PWS-902-1R PDB-PT846-N24 After a while it seemed that if I turned the case off and on again soon, it didn't start every time. Now it doesn't start at all. Took out the two PWS and the PDB for testing. The PWS go to yellow...

    Flash M1015 to IT mode: error: Firmware Host Boot Failed

    I think these ways of flashing are all a pain in the.. I prefer using Megaraid Storage Manager for Windows :) This only works if the card still shows up in Windows of course.

    mikrotik meris botnet?

    I was new to Mikrotik routers a few months ago. Got one that was outdated and without firewall rules. Had to update packages and firmware (quite hidden). Then reset to default and finally got a good set of firewall rules. I can only recommend MT to advanced users (time to learn).

    Huawei S1720X-32XWR managed switch power consumption & noise?

    Innovative Energy-Saving Design - The S1700 supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), which enables the switch to enter a power-saving mode when traffic is light. - The S1700 can adjust the power output for transmissions based on the cable length. It can also set any ports that are not...

    Megaraid IBM M5016 Power on, reset, or bus device reset occurred / Diagnostics failed for PD/ PD error

    Did you ever find out what was going on here? I have a LSI hardware raid6 with 17 1TB SATA disks in a Netapp DS4243. Only the two Samsung HD103SI cause the "Power on, reset, or bus device reset occurred". In my case the raid doesn't break though :)

    LSI/AVAGO 9267-8i 512MB - newbee need help with initialization hard drives under windows 10

    Hi, are you still having problems? Do you boot from the disks connected to the sas controller? Did the post screen messages go away after switching the card? Do you want to make a raid or JBOD? Did you update your mainboard bios? Did you try a different PCIe slot?

    Can I use HGST 8TB SAS3 disks in a SC846A?

    Hi Been using a SC846A for a while with: - LSI 9201-16e - 2x IBM expander - 20 SATA disks (2-5TB NTFS+Snapraid) Found an auction for 10x used HGST 8TB SAS3, about $120 each. (Sektoren:4KB mit Emulation (512e)Drehzahl:7.2K) I'm guessing they're from a SUN server. Would these disks work in my...

    Mellanox ConnectX-3 - DL360G8 - PCIe slots

    My SC846 has 20 SATA disks (Snapraid for parity). First I used an old HP SAS expander but then switched to two IBM expanders (12 disks each). So currently I'm only using half of the 9201-16e SAS ports. I would have a NetApp DS4243 lying around, but its QSFP connecter annoyed me ;)
