I have a Tyan S7012 motherboard that I have been using for awhile now as my home server. When I first got the board, it came with two Xeon E5530 CPU's. I used it for about a day and then it would lock up and I would have to reboot it and it would work for another day. I removed one of the...

I found out that I had a GPO that was blocking access to "removable drives" and apparently this is considered one of those. Once I removed that GPO, everything worked as it should.

Yes.

The Z hard drive shows up fine, but it says I don't have permission to access it.

Nope, that's not really how it works. It doesn't treat the Z drive as a mapped drive really. View composer just adds a second drive to the VM so it shows up as another physical disk.

I setup a new desktop pool in Horizon 6. This will be used for supervisor level staff that need their same desktops each time they login. The pool is set for linked-clones, but with persistent disks for user profiles. I set the user profile to be stored on a persistent disk in the Horizon...

Is there a way I can check to see what version firmware my HP sas expander is running without having an HP raid card? My HBA is an LSI MegaRaid SAS 9260-16i.

Yes, the 14x2TB is all one array (one logical disk).

Ok, that sounds like a good plan. Anyone have any idea what SAS expander would be compatible with my card?

How can I start using an expander now though since I've already used all the ports on my raid card?

I have a home server that I use for storing various things and I'm getting to the point where I need to expand it's storage. Here's my current configuration: Case: Norco 4220 (holds 20 hot swap drives) RAID Card: LSI MegaRAID SAS 9260-16i OS Drive: 120gig SSD plugged into motherboard SATA...

According to Minitool Parition Wizard, I should be able to accomplish this using their cluster resize tool.

I was able to successfully shrink the partition back down to less than 15TB and I'm able to use it again in windows. I used minitool partition manager to accomplish this. I think my next step will be using this same tool to change the cluster size to 16k, and then expanding the drive.

I have a need to expand my storage volume above 15TB and my current cluster size is 4k. I need to increase that to 16k, but I don't have the means to backup this amount of data. Is there any way to do this without having to reformat?
