My Esteemed Colleagues, I need your recommendation on a RAID 1 - USB 2.0 / eSATA / Firewire 2-drive enclosure, capable of 2 - 2T drives. I do NOT need NAS capabilities. I would like to add my own drives versus a retail unit with drives. What I have been using is RAIDON GR3630-2S-SB2+ (USB...

One quick update about the fans... Due to the fact that the Tyan motherboard does not do "Wake-on-LAN"; currently I have the server on a 4 hour wake timer from 18:00 to 22:00. It has been on that cycle since the first post. Yesterday is the first time that I remoted into the server, since...

Hey Guys, So sorry for the delay; I've been away from the boards for a while after my former employer decided to reduce the headcount. Give me few more days and I will try to answer the questions. Cabling parts (connectors, wiring, sheathing, shrink-tubing, pins, pin crimping tool)...

Patrick, thanks for the kind remarks. In regards to the cables, I couldn't find what I wanted for the fan splitter cables, so I built these. 2 into 1 for the rear exhaust fans and 3 into 1 for the fan wall: When I did the research into this build, someone had built a custom power cable...

FYI…The Tyan S5512WGM2NR does NOT support WOL (Wake-on-LAN). This is a deal breaker for me. I built a Norco 4220 around this motherboard and WHS v.1…software installed, started loading data, putting the final tweaks to it…when I encountered this. While the board the supports S3...

PERFECT! Thanks. With HDSentinel it does report the information. I'm disappointed that Home Server SMART doesn't report it, because then I would be able to see it from the WHS console on the clients versus to remote into the server. But hey, at least I can tell my chosen cooling selection...

My fellow S5512 users… Okay. I plead Uncle (only because I can’t figure this out). Does the Tyan S5512WGM2NR pass SMART data? If so how? My configuration: Norco 4220 Tyan S5512WGM2NR with firmware v.1.03 and with i3-2100T 2 - Hitachi 2.5” 7K500 drives running RAID 1 through the motherboard...

I just got mine with a BIOS upgrade to the Tyan motherboard.

It’s been a long evening…but I digress, The fix in my situation is a BIOS upgrade to the motherboard. Please see the fixes for v.1.03: I don’t go willingly into a BIOS flash, but as the LSI 9240-4i is the brother (or sister?) to the LSI 9240-8i (and my IBM m1015), I went there with...

I posted at about the same time over on the Motherboard thread, with the same problem…I want to know too.

Tyan S5512WGM2NR: No m1015 WebBIOS? - SOLVED As stated, Tyan S5512WGM2NR with the IBM m1015 card (new MB; fleabay card; I’ve got 4; tried all 4). When booting, I get into the LSI MegaRAID BIOS screen and press Ctrl-H for the WebBIOS. Quickly, a line appears “WebBIOS will be executed after...

Thanks guys!

Yea, a real noob question. But I’d like someone to explain why the IBM M1015 cards are being flashed to that. I don’t understand what IT-mode is (or isn’t). Background: I’m building slowly. Norco 4220, Tyan S5512WGM2NR. Going to run WHS v1 with duplication. The decision the...

I’m building… Tyan S5512WGM2NR inside a Norco 4220. And I thought that I would test the drives with Hitachi’s Drive Fitness Test (DFT) before use (7K500-250 2.5†for the O.S.). I’m individually plugging them into a SATA port on the board and trying to run DFT. But DFT does not see...
