Fffrank Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 (edited) I've got a DL380 G7 w/ an H220 HBA. Has been working and stable for years until the mainboard failed. I replaced the board and now I don't see the HBA. I've disabled the onboard p410i and confirmed all cables are plugged in and the PCI-E riser is firmly seated (and there's a power light that indicates it's powered up.) I don't see any other options related to storage in the BIOS. Unraid boots fine but it's not showing the HBA in an lspci command or any drives in any of the GUI settings. BIOS is updated (P67) I feel like I'm missing something really simple but just can't figure it out. Any ideas? Edited April 3, 2023 by Fffrank Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 You might want to post the details (maker and model) of that new motherboard. Look in the manual for information on the MB slot assignments. Be careful about using the GPU slot if you can avoid it. (You might want to Google that HBA and see if there is a mod required for it to work in some MBs...) Quote Link to comment
Fffrank Posted April 3, 2023 Author Share Posted April 3, 2023 It's a server so this is the same mainboard that it was replacing. There isn't any GUI slot. Have searched the forum (and internet) extensively and not seeing any mods or any other information coming up (except that it's a verry common HBA and works well.) Quote Link to comment
Fffrank Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Booted up a FreeDOS USB with the sasflsh.exe utility and it found no SAS devices. This tells me I must either have received a bad mainboard or possibly the failing motherboard took out the hba in the process. I don't have another pci device anywhere so I've ordered a new hba to try tomorrow. Should tell me what's up. Quote Link to comment
