  1. when I run these settings I loose both esata port and ood port out of storage manager is there away just to put back the ood by itself?

     

    SSH to your Station and edit /etc/synoinfo.conf and /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf

    esataportcfg=0x30
    internalportcfg=0xf
    usbportcfg=0x1FC0
    

     

    This sets the odd and the esataport to esata.

     

    Edit:

    Hex in Bin ( 7 usb 2esata/odd 4internal)

    0x30 = 0000000 11 0000 (you could try ´[0x20=0000000 10 0000] the other one should be the odd port)

    0xf = 0000000 00 1111

    0x1fc0 = 1111111 00 0000

  2. In my ahci settings I get all ports 0-5 shown as Hard Disk.

    I hope this info helps you.

     

    what version of the bios mod did you install ? is there a link that you followed to mod your bios ? Apart from the bios mod that you did , did you have to change anything in dsm ? my concern is that my bios is picking up the drives like this also it seems like some of my issues my be coming from bios. I may reflash it with ur bios version

  3. What I can say is that it is possible!

    I have a n54l at home running with 6 hdd's in one shr volume.

    But I don't know why DSM won't expand your volume.[/quote

     

    Just wondering how are you running the 6th drive in your server? By the way I'm running the same bios settings . if you look at my screen shot does your ahci slot 4 show as not detected ?

  4. ok so just a quick update I just removed the whole volume all together and recreated a new one using the 5 drives and its working . I don't know why it didn't want to expand the disk array , it may have not liked all the different size hard drives. I was using 2 x 4tb 2x 1tb and 1x 1.5tb in the cdrom bay which was the one I was trying to get to expand. What also happened which was a bit strange was that I removed one of the 1tb drives which made up 4 disk shr raid (which then change the shr to degraded status), and then replaced it with the spare 1.5tb from the cdrom bay which invoked the repair of the shr raid which fixed the shr raid again. But when I reinserted the original 1tb which was out of drive bay 4 and placed it into the cdrom bay to try and expand it again it totally crashed the shr raid hence the reason why i"m rebuilding the volume from scratch.

  5. As others have said, it's definitely possible as I have 5x2tb running under SHR. Have you modified the bios & set the sata controller to AHCI mode?

     

    yes I have done the bios mod .... I also checked under bios and AHCI mod was enabled. The strange thing that I noticed is that with 5 drives installed the ahci picks up the drives in this order is this the way yours is? im using the 4 normal hd bays plus the cdrom bay.. Also turning AHCI made no difference

  6. Hi is there a way to remove the esata port from showing as disk 5 under DSM 5.0 disk manager , I've recently added a 5th drive in the cd rom bay using the on board spare sata port but its coming up as drive 6. I figured out that the 5th drive slot is reserved for the external esata port , when I plug in a esata external drive it comes up as disk 5.

  7. Hi I just added a 5th Hard disk in the cd rom bay of my server and connected it to the spare sata port. DSM picks up the hard disk fine but will not let me expand my current 4 disk shr raid. Should this work? or will it not work because its on a different controller? it allows me to create a new volume but wont expand the current one (which is the 4 disk shr raid).

  8. Hi I recently added a fifth drive in my hp n54l and under DSM\storage\overview its showing the disk like this (the green one in bay six). Is there a simple way to move the drive to the fifth hard disk location under the DSM software? its currently plugged into the spare SATA port on the mainboard and I am running the bios hack.
