November 13, 20214 yr I had a rocketraid raid card and a netstor external 8 bay enclosure. I could not get it to read the drives in unraid so I purchased the lsi card per the recommendations, 9207-8e. It's on the latest firmware and IT. It shows in the unraid config but still no drives. Tried a couple of the pci ports and even the tape trick for pins 5 and 6. It connects with external mini sas plugs to the enclosure. 2 questions, should I see the drives in the card bios/boot and how do I get unraid to recognize it. Here are some pics of stuff that looks unusual. Edited November 14, 20214 yr by MrTouchy

November 15, 20214 yr Author Thank you very much. That helps a bunch. I'm going to try moving the card to another machine and see what happens.
November 30, 20214 yr Author Finally fixed it. After about 40 hours and a couple of weeks, it was the firmware. I had updated the card bios but not the firmware. Updated and it's working flawlessly.
