Smurf Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Hi All, New to unraid and have made good progress .. slowly 🙂 I have a HP 310e with 4 drives installed and running with a 240gb older ssd (cache) fitted to a 3gb/s port on the motherboard. I'd like to upgrade the cache drive to something better so purchased a Samsung 980 and PCIe m.2 card , however Unraid doesn't show it installed. I've booted the PC into a utility USB and ran HWInfo and it showed the drive fully working so I'm looking at a problem with the unraid configuration but don't really know where to start. I've also tested the Card/drive in another windows 10 PC and its fine. These are items purchased. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07FN3YZ8P/ref=pe_27063361_485629781_TE_item https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08TJ2649W/ref=pe_27063361_487055811_TE_dp_1?th=1 I've included the diagnostics, if someone is able to help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Smurf server-diagnostics-20220405-0649.zip Quote Link to comment

Smurf Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Thanks Jorge, Tried all available slots and still no joy, popped in a Samsung 256 GB NVMe module and it worked .. very strange, tried the Samsung 980 1 TB again and no joy. Can you recommend another drive and I'll return it for a swap , I believe the 980 doesn't have dram so perhaps thats the difference. Cheers Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 980 is a low end device, I would prefer a 970 EVO Plus, or the 970/980 PRO if you need more endurance. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I didn't mentioned it but obviously the low end 980 should still work, could be some compatibility issue, should be OK with a different model device but make sure it can be returned if it isn't. Quote Link to comment
