The enclosure in question is not what you've listed. We're working with the SE3016 which is the older brother of the one you've posted.

Guys, ftp.rackable.com is still up and wide open to the public. I found the following: ftp://ftp.rackable.com/public/Technical%20Support/Pdf%20files/MVD/MVD-S3116-Manual-1.4.1.pdf It's a manual for a very similar NAS system. If we dig deep enough, we might be able to find some manuals on this...

Guys, I've got some pretty cool news. Like I said last week, they accepted my offer and I was going to pick up mine from their Novi warehouse. Turns out, they decided to send it to me free of charge over the weekend! I have it sitting next to me right now. Now all I need is some SFF-8088 cables...

They're in Novi. I should of mentioned you can't just walk up and rummage through their stock. You have to buy something in advance and then set up an appointment to pick it up. EDIT: My offer got accepted, but it's too late for me to take lunch and pick it up. I'll head over there on Monday.

I just submitted an offer for one of these. Hopefully they will accept today so I can go pick it up at lunch. I'm local to them and have purchased an InFocus LP860 projector a few months ago off of their eBay store. Awesome bunch of guys with a MASSIVE warehouse of computer crap to go through...

I made a Solaris 11/Napp-it system for a friend of mine using 3 m1015 HBAs and this motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813121346 It's been running strong for three months now.

Hardware raid is a no-no. JBOD each of the drives on the controller. When using ZFS in an ESXi environment, it completely depends on the ability to pass through the hard drive controller to the virtual machine. Using any type of hardware RAID and/or hard drive virtual configuration completely...

HOLY CRAP it works!!!! This is incredible!! Solaris 11 express now has 100% support right out of the box for this card!!! No messy driver install after loading the operating system!! AWESOME!!!!! What kind of motherboards are you using? I got the same error using an intel server motherboard...

If I remember correctly, that's happening because you need a ps/2 mouse and keyboard hooked up to the system. I believe there's a passage about that in the manual for a 9240-8i.

This is awesome news! I've been wanting to try ZFSGuru for a while now and haven't been able to because of this limitation. I'll give this a shot in the next couple of days and see how it goes. Thanks for the info!

More information is needed. You say you bought two of these enclosures correct? Does it happen to both of them? Have you tried plugging only one of them in? What about changing the hard drives around so they're in different slots? Since you didn't say what type of motherboard you have, I'm...

Define unreliable. What are your logs saying? Are you running encryption to take advantage of the built-in AES-NI acceleration? If not (and I don't even know if AES-NI acceleration will even benefit from multiple cores), there's really no need for more than a single core. Save your cores for...

Looks like I gotta go and buy up as many F4s as I can before Seagate gets their unreliable hands into the mix.... Samsung, this is insane and horribly disappointing.

You're incredible! Thanks!

Awesome! I will give this a shot tonight when I get home. Thanks! EDIT: Actually, I've got another one for ya. When rebooting, my encrypted folders lock back up which is great. However, if those folders are shared out via SMB, I must un-share them and then re-share them after decrypting the...
