December 8, 20232 yr Hello Fellow Unraid lovers I have got a problem. Today i put my unraid server in a new case. It's an Inter Tech 4408 with hot swappable bays. For the connection with my mainboard i used an minisas to sata cable (8087) The drives won't show up. I used another cable, another 4 pin molex but nothing works. i attached my diagnostics and i hope somebody can point me in the good direction. I love unraid but now my head is spinning :-) Cheers storinator-diagnostics-20231208-2152.zip
December 9, 20232 yr Do you have the correct cable? There are different cables for connecting from motherboards SATA ports to a SAS-8087 backplane vs connecting SAS-8087 on an HBA card to SATA drives. They look the same, but only works one way. Example (no affiliation with these cables, nor have I tested them): SAS-8087 (host) to 4x SATA (target) 4x SATA (host) to SAS-8087 (target)
December 9, 20232 yr Author Solution Thanks for your answer. I used cables from an older lsi. I ordered reverse 8087 cables. Hope this does the trick. Thanks Yivey_unraid
