PREngineer Posted June 3, 2023 #4 Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) Here's how I solved it for my particular case: Problem: I have a PCIE SATA expansion card. It has 12 physical ports but it has 24 virtual ports in its firmware. I needed to remap drives 17-24 to empty ports 5-12. Here's what I did: 1. In ARPL, add a new Cmdline option using these steps: 2. Name of the option: sata_remap 3. Values are written in the following format: [Current Number - 1]>[Where I Want It - 1] 4. Since I had to remap 8 ports, I kept adding using the : 5. Final value was like this: 6. Re-built the loader 7. Re-loaded DSM 8. Problem fixed, now my drives are shown "sequentially" (when I took this picture, drive 2 was removed): Edited June 3, 2023 by PREngineer Quote
