December 30, 20169 yr Are there any PCIE x1 SATA cards that are unraid compatible? The ASMedia card I just bought is causing udev hang... I don't have any other slots left than PCIE x1 slots.
December 30, 20169 yr Are there any PCIE x1 SATA cards that are unraid compatible? The ASMedia card I just bought is causing udev hang... I don't have any other slots left than PCIE x1 slots. Well, I have a SATA2 PCI-Express x1 RAID Controller Card using a Silicon Image SIL3132 in my Test Bed Server that works. I believe that is the chip of choice for many of the PCIE X1 cards. You may have gotten a DOA one...
December 30, 20169 yr this card works fine on a HP microserver N54L https://www.scan.co.uk/products/highpoint-rocket-620-(r620)-2-channel-internal-pci-e-v2-x1-to-sata-6gb-s-non-raid-controller-card have added 2 more drive to my array using it. comes with half height bracket and 2 sata data cables

Controller wiki Please provide some more info on the controller you have. Also the board that is not compatible. Thanks
January 20, 20179 yr Are there any PCIE x1 SATA cards that are unraid compatible? The ASMedia card I just bought is causing udev hang... I don't have any other slots left than PCIE x1 slots. I just installed 2x of these SATA controller cards... IO Crest 2 Port SATA III PCI-Express x1 Card (SY-PEX40039) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005B0A6ZS/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Each card has 2 SATA 3.0 ports. They use the ASM1061 chipset. Plug & Play with unraid 6.2 - work like a champ!
February 24, 20179 yr What cables are you guys using for the Dell and/or IBM cards? My DS380 has both SATA and SAS connectors on the backplane.
February 27, 20179 yr You probably gain more flexibility if you use the SFF-8087 to SATA (forward breakout). Gives you the opportunity to connect drives directly without the backplane if necessary. The downside is the handling of the many cables.
March 1, 20179 yr Well my LSI M1115 won't fit my DS380 as I suspected, without some case modding. I see a bunch of non-Marvell cards in the wiki that *appear* as though they may work with 6.x......
March 2, 20179 yr is this correct card for norco 4224 build? http://www.ebay.com/itm/131659438749 Any better alternatives from EU? Buying from china is not recommended?
March 2, 20179 yr I have 3 of the Dell H200 wich i belive are the same as the h310 on my norco case and they work great, i use 6 SFF-8807 monoprice cable Edited March 3, 20179 yr by mata7

If you have a found a card that fits and is available in you region we can have a closer look at it. 14 hours ago, mata7 said: I have 3 of the Dell H200 wich i belive are the same as the h300 ... H200 or H310! There is no H300 - just to avoid confusion. Difference are the connectors. H200 has vertical ones. H310 has horizontal ones. Both very good for unRAID, they just need to be flashed to IT mode.
March 24, 20179 yr I'm doing a Norco 4224 build in a few days with (3) 9210-8i's and (12) 4TB drives to start. Does it matter how the drives are balanced across the controllers since I'm not using all 24 ports to begin with? This will be on a Asus Z9PA-D8 mb using PCI-E Gen3 slot's 3, 4 and 5 (x16, x8, x16). To aid with cooling, I might install drives 1-4 of the bottom row of the case, skip a row then drives 5-8, skip another row then drives 9-12. This would put 4 drives on each controller.

March 25, 20179 yr 15 minutes ago, dukiethecorgi said: Do these H310 Perc adapters work with drives >4tb? Yes. I have 8TB drives on mine now. If the controller supports >2,2TB drives then it will support all drive sizes for the foreseeable future. Will be a long time before drive would be too big. You are more likely to need a new interface to connect a drive before a drive will be too big.
April 18, 20179 yr Anybody tested a 12 port controller card that can do? With my setup I think I'm going to run out slots for drives.

PCIe 2.0 x8 will do 4GB/SEC which is quite a lot for a disk controller, especially if you're not using SSDs on itJust an idea Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 25, 20179 yr All this mentioned controllers are not available anymore and i dont want to use a "used" controller card. Is unraid really not able to work with modern SATA-Controllers, just stone age ones??? My Adaptecs are working (still) but i am looking for spares, but in my location, all these mentioned controllers are not available so i need suggestions for "modern" 4-Port SATA-Controllers. Thanks Edited April 25, 20179 yr by Zonediver

It's not an unRAID problem, it's a Linux problem with most Marvell chipsets, and 4 port controllers are mostly Marvell based, if you want a new controller you can get 2 or 8 ports, 2 ports go for Asmedia, 8 ports there are new LSI controllers that work out of the box, e.g., LSI 9207-8i.

I see - thanks for this Info But this controller is also quite old - released in summer 2012... Edited April 25, 20179 yr by Zonediver
