Hi Ozool No im afraid not im out of ideas. thanks.

Hi Iv just flashed the LSI to the latest firmware and bios still no luck with the drives being detected in DSM Firmware : \firmware\HBA_9207_8i_IT\9207_8.bin Version no: 20.00.07.00 Release date: 11-FEB-16 BIOS : \sasbios_rel\mptsas2.rom Version no: 7.39.02.00 Release date: 03-AUG-15

Hi guys ok so iv tried something different, I mounted and formatted 2 of the 8 4tb drives I had for the install in windows. No problems there. I then tried a fresh install(with another 2tb drive I had just formatted on the motherboards internal controller). But still the same thing no drives detected from the 9207-8i card I believe the card works, but I have a driver issue. Could anyone with a DELL/LSI IT Mode 9207-8i help me out. thanks.

Hi all Iv been having problems with my DELL/LSI IT Mode 9207-8i. And I dont know where to post so I can get some help. thanks.

Hi I have been looking for a storage solution for some time, played around with Freenas for about a week, then a friend suggested why not try XPEnology. Which brings me here. Im not that technical im afraid so bare with me. My system is a collection of old parts. Processor : Intel i5 2500k Motherboard : Gigabyte P67A-UD7-B3(network card is onboard Marvell x2) Ram : 8 GB DDR3 add on card : DELL/LSI IT Mode 9207-8i SATA/SAS 6Gb/s PCI-E 3.0 Host Bus Adapter(recently purchased) And an odd collection of drives Segate 2 and 4 tb My install is baremeta using Juns loader ds3617_6.2 DSM : DSM_DS3617xs_23739 Im currently having problems with the DSM detecting drives from the add on sata card( LSI 9207-8i in IT mode). The drives do detect in its bios, but when coming into the DSM environment it does not show them. As a test bench I have an old 320 sata drive as a simple disk running off the onboard controller, which works fine for about 2 weeks now. There are a few other problems however I would like to fix this issue of the add on sata card first. Iv been reading and search for about a day now but cant seem to find any relevant information. Just that the 9207-8i is working in other peoples builds. But no information as to how they got it to work. Im sure there are drivers in the currently boot loader "synoboot_ds3617xs.1.03b". Iv come across many articles recommending the 9207-8i card. There are 8 sata ports on the motherboard onboard controller, and a further 8 ports on the 9207-8i. All help would be appreciated.
