MrTouchy Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) 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, 2021 by MrTouchy Quote Link to comment

MrTouchy Posted November 15, 2021 Author Share Posted November 15, 2021 Thank you very much. That helps a bunch. I'm going to try moving the card to another machine and see what happens. Quote Link to comment
MrTouchy Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 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. 1 Quote Link to comment
