Post by: Rajahal on October 06, 2010, 09:51:34 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I just learned this trick recently: go into the SuperMicro card BIOS (press ctrl-m at the right time) and disable INT 13h for all your SuperMicro cards (if you have more than one). This setting makes it so that none of your hard drives on the SuperMicro card can ever steal boot priority! HDDs on the motherboard still can, though. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is only needed if you have a hard drive robbing your boot priority. I did it before I let unRAID try and boot. Take it from one of the best on the forum. Thank you Rajahal!
March 15, 201115 yr Author I still recommend the above. Not always necessary, but you may as well make the change.
March 16, 201115 yr Looks like the deal is over. I applied PADDY15 code & results said invalid code or expired.

Right now the hard drives on my supermicro card come before those that are on the motherboard i.e., sdb, sdc, sdd compared to sdf... on the motherboard. Would disabling INT 13h alter the array in any way upon reboot?
March 17, 201115 yr I wish I could tell you. I only have hard drives connected to my 2 SASLP-MV8's and none to my motherboard.

No, it won't. unRAID doesn't care about which drives are assigned as sdb, sdc, etc. Drives can change order between reboots and unRAID will figure it out.
