March 17, 20233 yr Have a new system that was moved from an older one which accepted my LSI 9220-8i HBA New system is intel i3 (12th gen) with AsRock z690. The LSI card has been IT flashed some years ago. On boot it doesn't show up, it's not in mobo bios, and unraid doesn't seem to list the hardware. I have two other LSI cards and the same issue. I'm thinking the Mobo is not recognising but I can't see why as it's in IT mode and all info should go straight to the mobo as it's a passthrough.
March 18, 20233 yr Is there a newer firmware for your LSI card available? Was your old system using EFI BIOS? I am wondering if the difference is because the cards are not accepted on UEFI Bios
March 18, 20233 yr Author You're right, the new board is UEFI and the older one was not. I can't go back and check as that mobo is gone. I'm not sure how to proceed, get new HBAs or something else?
March 19, 20233 yr Community Expert Those LSI HBAs don't support UEFI BIOS, but that by itself don't prevent the controller form working, please post the diagnostics with the LSI installed.
March 24, 20233 yr Author Hi, I've given up and bought some alternatives already: MZHOU PCIe SATA Card 6 Ports 1X PCIe SATA Expansion Card - 6 Gbps SATA 3.0 PCI Express Card - SATA Controller Expansion Card with 6 SATA Cables and Low Profile Bracket (Chipset ASM1166)

March 25, 20233 yr Community Expert I would be reading the MB manual about the PCIe slots/buss at this point. It seems like these are sometimes setup to be allocated between various different device ports and that prevents them from being used by the other ports-- hope that makes sense.

I had the LSI card in the x16 slot and it's the only slow of the mb that can take an x8, the other PCIe slots are x1
