    IBM M5015 overheating due to bad resistor soldering

    So after reading everything on this form about the assorted LSI based controllers, I picked up an IBM M5015 and battery on eBay. When I first tested it out, in my old server (which is an Intel SC5299-E server chassis), the card seemed to work fine and sat there running (doing pretty much...
