AllGamer Posted October 3, 2016 #1 Posted October 3, 2016 Hi does anyone have experience or know if the Adaptec 7 Series cards are supported? http://www.microsemi.com/products/stora ... rs/series7 In special I'm planning to pick up this one model 72405: 24 internal ports since all the other cards I've tried didn't get much success breaking the 16 SATA host adapter limitation, by combining several 8 ports, it'll appear I'll have to get an actual card that can deliver 24 ports in a single card to solve my problem.
Benoire Posted October 3, 2016 #2 Posted October 3, 2016 I know that the 16 port PMC Adaptec HBA 1000-16i appears to work with dsm5.2 using the standard bootloader but the person who was using it said it didn't do SMART. Not sure how related that is to the 7 series.
AllGamer Posted October 3, 2016 Author #3 Posted October 3, 2016 I was doing some googling around, and apparently Driver wise for Linux, from Adaptec 6 series and above, it uses the same architecture, as in HDDs from Series 6, 7 and 8 are all interchangeable, however... that might or might not be the same in regards to drivers.
