Hi all, I will try to keep this brief so you don't get bored but get all the info you need in here Hardware Server: Dell T410 CPU: 2x E5-2450 v2 (8C 16T 2.5GHz) Memory: 192GB DDR3 1600 MHz (12 x 16GB) RAID Controller: Dell PERC H710P (used for VM Storage, truenas OS drive is stored...

Hello. I hope that someone in here have a little more experience with this than i do. I bought an LSI 9300-8i to connect directly to two 1.92TB 12G sas drives. I then also bought TWO different kinds of cables that would take SATA power to power the drives, i know they deliver power as i have a...

Say you have a single SMicro host (single node) with LSI 9300 + 8x SSds. (ESXi is installed on a separate disk). How do you "pool" the storage to make a large datastore?

I just upgraded from a 9200-8i + BPN-SAS-I28A to a 9400-16i + BPN-SAS3-I28A (the version with an Atmel chip). Problem is, I can no longer get the LEDs (other than presence/activity) to work now. Here's what I've tried: ledctl - used to work perfectly (still does for the main backplane which is...

I have an HP T630 thin client and a couple of Seagate Ironwolf HDDs and would like to build a cheap NAS with TrueNAS. Of course the T630 doesn't have any SATA ports, so I need some kind of HBA to be able to connect the HDDs. So my questions are what's the best one to buy and would the ones I've...

Hi All, I have many server with FC HBAs that connect to SAN Switch, I have a Linux server, do exist solution for find and show WWNs of other servers in fabric in my server? Thanks for your Helps,

Hi All, A while ago I purchased a LSI 9211-8i setup for HBA. I was testing TrueNAS and the card was working fine for this, no problems. HBA did drive scans on boot and all that expected stuff. Now the server is being purposed for Windows Server, so I bought a LSI MegaRAID 9271-8i. It...

I've been troubleshooting a fatal PCIe error on Linux that occurs when booting with an HBA card installed. I have gone through a lot of debugging steps; there's too much to dump here, so here's the cliff notes: - My goal is to run Proxmox. I've ran it on this system before, just without the HBA...

Just bought a lsi 9300-16i. Price seemed pretty cheap for this and I want to make sure I've got a genuine card. I've read that people verify their serial numbers with LSI to make sure they didn't buy a "counterfeit". Has anybody here done that? If so, could you be kind to point me in the...

I need to connect 4 SED Ultrastar HC550 hard drives somehow, but I don't know what to look for other than low price and number of ports. The drives are less than 285 MB/s each, so I doubt there would be bandwidth limitations. Does the HBA affect use of TCG Enterprise encryption? I was looking at...

I got a 12600K used from a friend, and am deciding to build a NAS out of it with TrueNAS SCALE. The one thing that's exciting me is that this system would have a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot, which is a ton of bandwidth for things like M.2 NVMe drives - but I haven't found any sort of adapters or HBA's...

Hi, I'm doing a hardware upgrade on my server at home, and I'm planning to change the LSI 3008 on-board controller to a dedicated Adaptec ASR-71605. The LSI 3008 is used in IT mode, if I switch to the Adaptec controller, will it detect directly the hard drives as HBA and pass it through to the...

Hey All, Hoping someone may be able to help me as I'm stuck in a bit of a situation. For context, I'm trying to build a test S2D cluster with 2 HP DL360p G8's I have to get used to S2D environments at work. I'm fully aware these servers aren't "certified" for it, but should work if I can get a...

I've recently purchased a Gigabyte MZ72-HBO mobo and there are two U.2 NVMe (#38 & #39 on the board diagram in the user manual) ports attached to the CPU0. Rather naively, I assumed this meant that I could connect a SlimSAS to MiniSAS cable and run the Icy Dock MB720M2K-B 4x M.2 NVMe cage out...

Hi everyone. I’m planning out my next server build, but need some help on the storage side. I've been looking at the LSI 9400-16i HBA since it will do sata/sas and nvme. But I need some help with the nvme part. My plan is to run 4 x nvme in x2 mode so I can run 2 x nvme pr. port the controller...

I am very new to RAID/HBA cards and to flashing them. I read through nearly all big guides (e.g. techmattr, etc.) on how to flash this card to IT mode. The files I used for flashing are from a link to a zip-folder provided in techmattr's guide (folder date: 2016-05-24) I have provided...

Hi! I have an issue with my Seagate Exos X10, the model ST10000NM0096. Problem are that i have two HBA card flashed into IT-Mode, one LSI 9210-8i and 9211-8i. These cards WONT see or spin up the drives at all. I have it connected via this cabel Mini SAS 36 SFF-8087 to (4) SFF-8482 Connectors...

Hello, I this seemed like the appropriate place for this thread. I just recently bought my first server and am trying to get it set up the way I want it. I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction with my issue (below). Some basic information: DL380p G8 2 x E5-2650 v2 16GB HPE...

Hello all, I am using Unraid as my OS and I am having some issues. I posted this in the Unraid forums, but I believe this is more of a hardware issue, so I copy and pasted it here, hoping for some help. I am having some problems when trying to add additional storage drives. I've added drives...

Hello, I have looked various places but I have yet to find a DIY cable or available cable to utilize the 2 4-pin headers for LED activity. I attached an image from the manual for it. Has someone been able to create a cable for this or would someone help me make one so that I can monitor the...
