Hi everyone,

I've gone though all the menu's and I can't find it. Is there a way to see the negociated link speed between an Areca 1680 card and the HP-expander?

Also, I've added Hitatchi HDS5C3020ALA632 (2TiB SATA 6.0 Gb/s) drives and the Areca repports the current SATA mode as SATA300 and the supported SATA mode also as SATA300. Now, the first one is correct as I know the expander will not negociate a 6 Gb/s link but the supported mode is not reported correctly as SATA600.

I'm just wondering how to verify every link is negociated at the highest speed possible:)

Thanks!
Jeroen
 
I've just sent an email to Areca. Maybe it is hidden in the CLI somewhere. I'll update this post when I get an answer:)
