The company I got it from tested the first one that I RMA’ed and they forund a solutiion. The trick was to erase everything excl. Manufacturing area before flashing the firwmvare and BIOS onto the HBA. They did it in DOS, which I could not get working, as I was getting “ERROR: Failed to...

Just put together my old Supermicro x9scm-f to test it in that one. In the BIOS disk are detected on port 1-4 but not 5-6. In Server 2019, no disks are detected on any port.

No, the disks on port 5 and 6 are not shown in either Windows or when entering HBA configuration at boot (CTRL+C)

Hi I have strange problem. My new 9305-24i only detects 16 out of 24 disks. Port 5 and 6 on the top edge of the card does not detect any disks at all. I have tried connecting it with different cables, to different backplanes and even relocating the HBA to my workstation and connecting it...

In general used server hardware is much more expensive in EU than US, especially in Denmark :(. The price difference is so small that buying latest gen with warranty is often a better choice than older gen without warranty.

@Aluminum - H11SSL series was also what I was looking at for motherboard. The 7401P & MB would cost 1860$ in Denmark. 1920x & MB would cost 1250$ and give me the same amount of L3 cache for mining as the 1950x, so performance should be roughly the same and still leave me with 8 threads for...

@Aluminum - The tests I have seen has the 1950x ideling at almost twice the power as the 1800x (95W vs 50W). In Denmark the prices are: 1800x & MB - 630$ 1900x & MB - 920$ 1950x & MB - 1400$ 7351P & MB - 1400$.

@Patrick - Thanks for the info, I did not even consider the NUMA node problem for desktop use. Unfortunately the marked for used server equipment is small in Denmark, which means prices are high. A used dual E5 setup will cost me more than a new 7351P setup. @alex_stief - Thanks, that was...

Hi I am looking into replacing my aging Xeon E3 server that runs Hyper-V Server with various VM's (pfSense, Plex etc.). At the same time I want to "eliminate" my i7 desktop and use the new server for both, running Windows Server 2016. I was originally looking into a Ryzen 1800X or Threadripper...

Thanks for the information. They should really change the specs on their site as it states support for various sleep states :(

Hi I am not able to get the Supermicro A1SRM-2758F to sleep. I have tried just about every combination of BIOS settings but have had no luck. I have tried it on several OS's just to make sure. This is the output of powercfg /A on a hyper-v server. Windows 10 gives the exact same result minus...

I agree, and it must be related to running VM, because it does not occur if no VM are running. I just can't find anything i logs or Scheduled tasks that indicates what is triggering this. All I can find is that the storport initiates a performance summary, but I cannot figure out the trigger.

Hi I have a Hyper-V Server 2016 running various VM's. I have some mechanical HHD's passthrough to one of the VM's. These are placed on a M1015 HBA and spin down fine, using regedit storport/EnableIdlePowerManagement. My problem is that excatly every hour the disks spin up and down again. This...

Thanks for the tip RTM. I will look into that. I have one CRS226 that i bought used, and was thinking of getting a CSS326, if I can't find another CRS226 at a fair price.

Thanks for your help pc_doom. Looks like I will have to order it at fs and hope that it won't get noticed at the Danish customs, otherwise the price will double :(, but still cheaper than anything I can get in Denmark :). One additional question. Will this cable be able to support 40GB (with...

Hi I am very new to the 10GB networking and need some help getting the correct cable. My initial setup will be two Mikrotik CRS226-24G-2S+ switches connected with at 20 meter cable. Does this cable work for this setup? Avago AFBR-2CAR20Z 10G SFP+ Active Optical Cable | FS.COM It is just...

Hi David I run mine on one of the small mining GPU cards. Works perfectly without problems. No need to connect it to motherboard, as you correctly state, it only needs power.

Hi Has anybody been able to spin down hard drives under Hyper-V Server? I am not using storage spaces, but passthrough disks to the VM running flexraid. I have editet the LSI driver to include the sleep command, but i am not able to install it afterwards. I have created a new CAT file using...

Hi Robert Thanks for explaining. I missed that you were using 2012R2 and not Hyper-V Server.

Hi Robert Could you please explain or create a short guide on how you managed to get disks to spin down under Hyper-V. I have tried many things and nothing seems to work.
