Command

Dude. It totally worked; in fact I didn't even have to flash the 16i

So one more question: I guess it never makes sense to bind an HBA card? that should be done on the Unraid level and drives and shares are the mechanism for pass to VMs?

Bro... Thank you. Appreciate you so much. WIll try what you said tomorrow (been rebuilding the machine).

I'm confused, how will unraid see the hardware? so unbind (I assume that means uncheck their iommu groups), then in console run sas3flash and it should see. OK will try . And JorgeB; thank you so much for taking any of your time to help me. I appreciate you greatly.

I have an LSI 9305-16i installed and `sas3flash -listall` results in the following: ``` Avago Technologies SAS3 Flash Utility Version 16.00.00.00 (2017.05.02) Copyright 2008-2017 Avago Technologies. All rights reserved. No Avago SAS adapters found! Limited Command Set Available! ERROR: Command Not allowed without an adapter! ERROR: Couldn't Create Command -listall Exiting Program. ``` I can't for the life of me figure out why. It is a sas3 card. I do see the card recognized in iommu groups (though it does occur to me that I do have another LSI card for external disk shelf, it is also recognized but I haven't tried using that card yet). Both cards are recognized but no drives can be seen. diagnostics attached. diagnostics-20220430-0738.zip

Hmm. i would assume that the only way to secure erase but I haven't managed to get more details. Thanks for the response. I want just sitting there thinking it would be seconds.

I can't seem to find any information on actually instantly secure erasing a drive in linux. These are HGST Ultrastar drives (but not as awesome as before they were before being bought by WD).

Hello everyone, I 'm new to Unraid so please be gentle I have a bunch of 12TB ISE drives, shouldn't preclearing the drives be instantaneous? I mean that's what the I stands for right? It is not. Am I misunderstanding something?
