I just succesfully flashed a H310 to IR mode v 19 without any problems. Actually this card is more than 30 euro's cheaper than the D2607 and after flashing both channels work...

I stopped using Gigabyte after my first flash Asrock or MSI and nothing else...

You can get the latest IT/IR mode firmware directly from LSI. Crossflashing is only for rebranded cards as far as I know....

I only have supermicro's with 4 trays so one port is no problem for now... + I need IR mode. Not interested in unraid...

Ok this are the files that made me do a succesfull flash on the D2607 Fujitsu controller (ordered januari 2014 from fujitsu) http://rapidelectro.be/d2607.tar.gz !!!FIRST WRITE DOWN YOUR SASADDRESS!!! and then after starting up in dos I did megarec -writesbr -o sbrh200.bin then megarec -cleanflash -o end then I used sas2flash.exe -o -sasadd SASADDRESS -f 182118IR.BIN -b 18mptsas2.rom This will actually not flash the bios but that's no problem After that I used the latest flash utility + bios + firmware (P18 in my case) and just did sas2flash.exe -o -f 2118IR.bin -b mptsas2.rom everything went well and I was able to go in to the bios and configure my raid without the slow shit from Fujitsu... Only one port (4 disks) works after this method! PS. It took me about 4 days to get this working, making this by far the most expensive 'raid' controller I have ever owned... And it's still a slow peace of shit. I will never ever buy one of this crappy cards and or buy anything from LSI ever again in my life. For twice the amount you get a decent real raid controller from Areca or 3Ware making it even possible to do RAID5/6/50/60 and I will stick with 3Ware and Areca for the rest of my life from now on!

I think with the newer revision you may be able to directly flash the newest LSI firmware with the older dell sas2flsh. Well I actually got past firmware download successful Now reprogramming the adress and see if it works!

did you use the right sas2flsh and firmware? This version worked for me: Dell 6Gbps SAS HBA, v.07.01.24.00, A01 Run that one too and this one gives 'doesn't support revision (3)" I actually have a revision B2...

Stupid controller! I have tried following steps more then once with the D2607 with a revision B2 chipset megarec -writesbr -o empty.bin megarec -cleanflash -o reboot sas2flash.exe (v7) -o -f 2118it.bin (v7) -b mptbiosthingy (v7) mfg page 2 error Samething if i do this steps with the sbr200 file Version p18 is for the record online for download...

Tried that with the right sbr and I still get mfg page 2 error at dell, P7 en the P16 doesn't work at all.

d2607-a21 gs 1 Is the one I got and I'm unable to get pass the mfg page 2 error. It is although possible to flash the bios successfully...

Got myself a version 11 somewhere but that didn't help. I have a D2706 and I keep getting this mfg page 2 error... Tried the -sbr option but that didn't help either...

Can somebody get me a copy of P12 or P13 sas2flash.efi? Jackasses @ LSI stil didn't fixed the download links and all the other download links are dead...
