My issue is, that i only see 4 drives in the "HDD Management" section, but I have 18 sata ports (10 on my motherboard and 8 on 2 cards). I currently tested with 6 drives, no matter where I connect them, only 4 are shown.
Hopefully just a configuration issue?
Connected via SSH I can see all drives with "fdisk -l" and I'm able to mount them.
My Hardware:
- Case: Inter-tech IPC 3U-3316L with 4 SAS backplanes
- Motherboard: ASRock Z87 EXTREME6
- CPU: i5 4670T (Haswell)
- Controller: 2x Highpoint Rocket 640L
Any idea why I can only see 4 disks at a time?
Another issue, far less pressing, is that any external USB3 drive is not recognized (but I can mount it via fdisk/mount).
*** UPDATE ***
I changed my synoinfo.conf to:
esataportcfg="0x000000"
usbportcfg="0xfc0000"
internalportcfg="0x03ffff"
Now I can connect 14 drives, the 4 on the AsMedia connector on the MB are not shown in the GUI (but can see them with fdisk -l).
In "HDD Management" I can see Disk 1-10 and Disk 15-18.
I'll try setting "usbportcfg" to 0x00000 tomorrow.
