For years i been thinking and searching for a solution that brings a iscsi to a sata connection.
Why:
I hate to use single disk like connecting a external disk to something like a xbox or Wii U. Wen it dies you lose everything and i hate that. Also buying small disks are expensive and upgrading...
Wow, it almost a year wen I started this journey. In the mean wile a lot have happend that made me put this project a side. Got married, had to help 2 of my family's move and a became a daddy, so I was a little bit busy :D.
But I have a update, I finally got my old server down and put...
Thank, I thought it was that but better save than sorry. I imported the foreign configuration from the disks but i have 3 disks that gives unconfigurable good and i can't turn them online from the webbios. I need atleast 2 disk online before the array could work. It is a raid6 8 drives with 1...
I received my LSI 8708elp and connected all the drives but I run at a point that I need some assistance.
As I look at it, if I hit F it is trying to load the old array from the memory of the raid adapter from previous user

About your downside, I really dont mind that I have to change all disk for store expansion. The way the limitations...
It is off-topic but I would love to hear your ideas about ZFS vs Hardware RAID. No need for a flame war if it is a fare discussion.
That would be awesome, but no I don't know anyone with this kind of hardware. Not many home users use this kind of stuff :p
I am not concerned, I copied all disks (byte to byte) with R-Studio to my new FreeNas Server 11x4TB RaidZ3. So I have 8 2TB files that are protected by ZFS :P I also tried to recover with my data with R-Studio but one of my partitions is a GPT spanned DLM made with two raid volumes on the same...
My Intel RAID Controller SRCSATAWB broke sometime ago and because of that I cant access my Raid 6 Array. I like to replace the card with the same "Intel SRCSATAWB" but they are bit hard to find for a reasonable price. My question is, can i move my array to a LSI megaraid sas 8708elp? They look...
