Hi all.
I have a pair of H310s I am trying to flash to IT mode to install in a pair of HP DL380 G8s for Storage Spaces Direct.
I was able to flash the first HBA using the well-documented process that's all over the place these days (it's how I found this site ). The second HBA...well...now that's a different story so I'm hoping the experts here can help as I have been searching and trying different thigns for 2 days and about to throw this thing to the alligators.
The root problem I believe is that the second HBA is not being recognized by megacli but the only message I get when I run the initial command to capture the SAS address is the error code 0x01. I searched for that error code but nothing useful popped up.
Running "megarec -adplist" I get this:

I did have this HBA running with the RAID FW (ESXi 6.5) just fine but when I dropped it into a PC it does show up in Windows Device Manager but is reported to have an error. I doubt that the hardware is faulty since it ran fine in the server but can't rule that out at this point. Windows 10 loaded an LSI driver for it if that helps sort this out.
So here is what I have tried so far:
1. I tried this in one of the servers, a new UEFI PC and an old BIOS PC - same thing for all
2. Replaced the USB in case of bad hardware
3. Tried numerous version of megacli.exe
4. Launched megacli in Windows x64 - errors out but I at least got a "device not found" message
5. Ran every executable on the USB drive to see what output I could get lol
At this point, I don't know where to turn to troubleshoot further so hopefully somebody can help.
TIA,
Rik
