0 Ingridis13 Posted June 11, 2022 Author Share #4 Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) I found the problem: my LSI MegaRAID 1064E work at IR-mode instead of IT. And it seems that this thing can't work with >=3Tb disks. 😪 Does anyone know: will the SAS2008 or SAS2308 work with 3Tb Toshiba SATA disks and 6.2.3 Update 3? @Peter SuhCould you, please, answer? Thanks in advance for the answer! P.S. FW of 1064E is ver 1.29.00.00-IR Edited June 11, 2022 by Ingridis13 additional info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I flashed my Dell Perc H310 to SAS2008-IT. And, this HBA used JUN's loader 1.04b in DS918+ DSM 6.2.3 Update 3. In it, extra ext 0.12.1 provided by @IG-88 was additionally used. When I used this HBA with the ds918+, I had problems with not waking up after disk hibernation and not displaying S.M.A.R.T, so I used the specially designed version 0.12.1, not the last extras. At that time, the most used disk was Toshiba 3TB Sata disks and SHR was used. PS: The flash rom used the legacy version, If it is possible to set the storage side of M/B, it is recommended to use it by switching to legacy-only rather than UEFI. This is not limited to DSM 6 only. Now this HBA and disk are working fine with Redpill DSM7.1 DS3622xs+ without any problems.

The Sata controller I was using other than the HBA was using one 6-port product with a 4+2 mix of Marvell and ASMedia chipsets. In DSM 6, these ports worked without any problem, After changing to RedPill, only Marvell chipset works. I have little experience with ASMEDIA chipsets. sorry.

AHCI compliant and no port multiplier are the key factors for a SATA controller. There is no need for driver or chipset support if these are met. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Peter Suh Regarding the Marvell chipset SATA Controller, Do you think this will works with RedPills? http://www.iocrest.com/index.php?id=2208 It runs on the Marvell chipset, so theoretically it should works with RedPill right?

Although it is a Marvell chipset, it seems difficult for me to guarantee whether it works with REDPILL. I think it would be good to aggregate not only DSM installation success or failure data, but also success or failure data for various SATA controllers. I know this information is still scattered here and there. Edited June 13, 2022 by Peter Suh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will try it out and post my feedback at here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ingridis13 Posted June 16, 2022 Author Share #12 Posted June 16, 2022 I tried LSI SAS2008 and normally process of install 6.2.3 was completed. But when I try to create RAID10 (or just Basic) on disk that number is more than 6, I have message "System Failed to create storage pool" Whats the problem?

0 Ingridis13 Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share #13 Posted June 18, 2022 Will answer to my question myself 😊 The problem was with disks logical geometry: LSI 1064E had truncated my disks to 2Gb and SAS2008 was unable to read the right geometry. Disks was re-initialized with easeUS soft and after this operation -- RAID10 was SUCCESSFUL!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
