    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    Hi, thank you. I found that re-attaching the drives to the Areca card and disabling SATA Power Up In Standby in Raid Storage Manager solves the problem. These drives now work with a LSI HBA in another system.

    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    Hi, I have a bunch of WD 8TB Red drives which were once part of a RAID6 array using an Areca 1882ix-12 card. The disks were set to stagger spin up. I am trying to reuse these disks in another system with a LSI 9220-8i card and the HBA is not seeing these drives. I think the issue is when...

    Supermicro 6049SP-DE1CR90 Dual node 90 Bay Server

    Yeah, the cables are really tucked in and so I can’t trace them without disassembling the whole drawer, which I hesitate to do in case I break something. The drawer has 6 banks (A through F), and each bank has a backplane that accommodates 15 drives. And there are 6 cables that plug into a...

    Supermicro 6049SP-DE1CR90 Dual node 90 Bay Server

    Hi, I purchased this server not realizing that it is configured as two nodes with node one connected to drives 0-44 and node two connected to drives 45-90. Does anyone know if it’s possible to reconfigure this so that a single node can see all 90 drives? I’m happy to remove or not turn on the...

    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    Hi, I was referring to this item on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/145814611612 Would be great if I can access the array via ip address on local network….but I don’t see how that’d be possible. So trying to understand what this device does.

    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    Hi, does anyone have any experience with Areca ARC 8060 1.1 Raid Controller ARC8200 Areca REV-C SAS Expansion Module? What is it used for? Looks like it has integrated SPF slots. Looked for a manual or product info, but unable to find any…

    1.92TB KIOXIA CM6-R KCM6DRUL1T92 on Windows

    Thanks for the suggestion. When you say don’t work with Windows, do you mean some devices will never work or do you mean I just need to jump through some hoops, like reformatting, to get it to work in windows?

    1.92TB KIOXIA CM6-R KCM6DRUL1T92 on Windows

    $140 for 2TB. It sounds like the fix is to boot up Linux and use nvme tools to format. Would anyone have the commands to do that? I’m not familiar with Linux

    1.92TB KIOXIA CM6-R KCM6DRUL1T92 on Windows

    Hi, I was looking at this drive and seller is saying it will only work on Linux and not Windows. I tried to Google that, but didn’t find anything…would anyone know why that would be the case and if so, anyway to make it work on Windows? The seller did not have any other info. Thank you!

    Software update for Cisco Nexus 3000 Switch

    Thanks for the heads up. Yeah, I was trying to save a few bucks…a fully updated one on eBay is around $150 so not sure if a service contract makes sense. From what I can gather, I first need to update to Release 6.0(2)U6(10) and then to the most recent 9.3 release.

    Software update for Cisco Nexus 3000 Switch

    Thanks. It’s a Nexus N3K-C3048TP-1GE 48P 1GbE 4P SFP+ Switch. Yeah, I had read Cisco will provide security patches for free, but that doesn’t seem to be the case, I don’t have a service contract, unfortunately…

    Software update for Cisco Nexus 3000 Switch

    Hi, would anyone know how I can get the most recent software for this switch? It's currently running 6.0(2)U3(4) which is close to 10 years old! Thank you!

    No PBO option in BIOS of Gigabyte Aorus X399 Gaming 7

    Hi, I recently acquired this MB with a TR 1950X processor and went through the bios, but did not see an option to turn on PBO. I know this is an older board, but googling the issue, others seem to have the option, but I’m just not seeing it anywhere, I’m running the most recent bios. Any...

    Hitachi DW-F800 JBOD Enclosure

    Hi, looking to purchase one of these and wondered if anyone here has had any experience with them? I would like to use it as a JBOD on a Windows Server box. I read somewhere that these come configured as iSCSI and cannot be changed to JBOD without some special software which I probably won’t...

    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    Hi, separate from my other post on pass thru disks…I have another system with another 1882ix controller. This controller has two RAID6 arrays attached to it. The first one is via the internal connectors and consists of 10 disks. The second is via the external connector connected to a...
