Edited by gavinswallom Further testing proved some more things worked.
Loader: 1.03b DS3617xs
DSM : 6.2.2-24922 Update 6
Using the Driver Extension DS3617 extra.lmza v0.5_test and the copied kernel (zImage and rd.gz) from the DSM_DS3617xs_24922.pat to the second partition (partition 1 on OSFmount)
2GB Flash Drive on internal USB 2.0 bus that appears to be hosted by the HBA card.
Dell PERC H200 (IT Mode) ~ "LSI 9211" HBA 6Gb/s SAS
Intel PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Gigabit NIC && Intel PRO/1000 Pf Dual Gigabit Fiber Card
Both of the onboard Broadcom NICs are working for me as well.
Must use BIOS, UEFI doesn't work.
Shutdown/Reboot commands successfully passthrough to the hardware as well, which was something that wasn't working on prior versions for me when I was using the 3615xs on 1.02b
I used the Synology Assistant to install the .pat file, as the web interface kept failing.
I had a previous 6.1 install, but I ended up losing it in trial and error of things not working after I tried to convert to a ESXi Host from Baremetal, which did work, but I was having issues where I was unable to have all 12 of my drives attached at the same time to the VM, and would always show a blank drive tray and one external drive. I decided I would go back, but my previous USB for bare metal kept giving the error that no disks were found upon DSM loading. Thankfully, I was prepared to lose everything and had backed everything up to external drives before tinkering.
The two internal drives work if you update your syno.conf to support 14 drives.
