That's the exact predicament I find myself in, propman07. The support piece from the front plastic trim gets in the way of the fan if you try to line it in front of the drive case. I put a 80mm fan on the inside to the left of the drive case and that has helped bring down temperatures for one of my two SAS drives. (one idles at 40degrees while the other at 44, peaks are 43 & 48 respectively) Another thing this 80mm fan has helped to cool is my nvme m2 drive which now sits comfy at around 37-39). I'm going to try adding another 80mm fan to the front and try to align it so it doesn't block the support piece. As for my other SAS drive on the top cage, I've no idea how to cool it as the T30 cannot accommodate a fan there. For anyone else who might stumble across this post while trying to cool their T30 drives, my advice would be to use SATA NAS drives in the T30 as they tend to run cooler than their SAS counterparts. I have a RED sitting in the top cage as well and the temperatures on that are great even during a parity check. tl;dr: its hard to add fans to the T30, use SATA if you can.

Did you ever get around to adding additional fans and if so, could you run me through how you did it? I tried ziptying a 120mm fan to the front of the metal cage but I can't put the plastic front case back on then (cuz there's some conical plastic thing that juts out of it and gets in the way of the fan). Would love to hear how you cooled your drives as I'm having the same issue right now.

Oh thanks so much! I couldn't see the underline due to my theme. Now I feel silly for opening a thread about it. Much appreciated.

Salutations! Idk how this happened but since yesterday, I've been facing this issue where ALL help boxes are toggled on all the pages i.e Main, Shares, etc. Here is a screenshot of my Main page. If I click on 'Device' which toggles the help boxes on the main page, they disappear but only to reappear if I refresh the page. Please tell me there's a way to fix this. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply, johnnie.black. Yes, the card wasn't in IT mode, it was in Fusion Mode. Crossflashed it and everything seems to be working fine now.

I haven't done this but since it displays all the drives attached to it, doesn't that mean its already done? edit: Following this guide: https://techmattr.wordpress.com/2016/04/11/updated-sas-hba-crossflashing-or-flashing-to-it-mode-dell-perc-h200-and-h310/ Everything is working perfectly now. Thanks Frank.

Salutations! I'm currently struggling to enable S.M.A.R.T monitoring on my PERC H310 Controller. After much searching, I found this thread and followed what this guy did to the T. Selected an individual disk from the main tab and changed the "SMART controller type:" to megaraid. Like in the other thread, Megaraid is the proper driver for my card too. When I do this, the capabilities & Identity sections say "Can not read capabilities/identification" while the attribute section is blank. Using the same command however, yeilds a different result. I googled some more on this and modified the command until it gave out some information: Although this is no different from the SMART Report that I downloaded. I would highly appreciate any help on this matter as I'm very new to this and I'm at my wits end. Thanks.
