Hi guys, I'm having a problem trying to flash a Del Perc 6/i into IT mode. I removed the heatsink and its a LSI 1078 chipset so I tfirst tried the LSI SAS1068E windows files from the second @madburg post but sas2flash didn't recognize it in windows and linux. Then I found the LSI MegaRAID with SAS2008 chipsets post that says that they can be converted, and also found some other similar stuff online so I ended up with a lot of different versions and ended up with a dos usb boot where I managed to read the board with MegaCli and read all the info from the card (attached to this post but deleted the SAS address) and the did a backup of the SBR data. Then following the next step flashed what seems to be a dummy sbr file so I can flash a "not original firmware" an asked me to restart to flash the new firmware. The problem is that after that sbr dummy flash the board BIOS doesn't show up at start and none of the apps seems to detect the card... have I bricked my card? or at least can I recover from the backuped SBR file? Thanks! ADAPTERS.TXT

Any update on this? I know this is a very old post but I'm planning on doing a similar build with an Xserve Raid case that I'm going to buy for 100€ today. I guess that xxredxpandaxx just got bored of posting the updates or something failed and he gave up everything lol Would be nice to know the final status of this project and if you managed to get all the drives working. I'm planning to put 10 2TB WD Enterprise SAS drives inside, anyway, I will create a new post for that build Anyway, thanks for this post as you helped me decide to buy the case!
