Hi everyone,
I want to use RAID 1 for my two WD blue 1TB and max speed out of my SSD Corsair Force GT 120GB (OS), WD black 1.5TB. They are all SATA3.
I read everything from mobilenvidia at servethehome and I had PM back-and-forth in 2012 but I'm still not sure what to do. I suck bad with software.
I read quite a lot on the subject but man I can't make sense of all the info about MEGAcli, MEGArec, sas2flash, MEGAraid storage manager (MSM), etc, etc
If you don't mind I would like to ask a few Qs
1. I need RAID so I have to flash the M1015 to IR mode. Am I using LSI 9240-8i or LSI 9211-8i firmware/driver or stay with IBM M1015 softwares?
2. mobilenvidia link --> SAS2008 (LSI9240/9211) Firmware files - Projects, Tools, Utilities & Customized INFs - LaptopVideo2Go Forums is it up to date firmware/driver because on LSI and IBM software download page, everything have been updated in 2014.
ATM the M1015 is installed in my rig with no HDD/SSD connected to it. I want to flash first.
Here's what I have on boot and in windows.
My USB key DOS bootable is ready, what do I need to put on it? all of mobilenvidia files and do the cross flash like in part-4 of his tutorial?
I have now idea in what direction to go! IBM M1015, LSI 9240-8i or LSI 9211-8i
I only need SATA3 speed and RAID 1
Thx for your help.
