More SATA ports - IBM M1015 - what do I need to do?

Ended up with that there is no difference to the two IBM part numbers according to IBM them selves, even the same accessories and everything.

It's a mystery to me why they even make two...

 

 

Anyway...

 

 

I found a good offer on a IBM M1015 card in Germany I "had to" order - so I did...

 

 

Someone said something about I would need to flash the card, ok, flash it with what, how and why??

Thanks m8 :)

 

 

Btw, when I flash it, will it be possible to revert the process and get the official IBM BIOS back on the card If I later on want to use it in a different setup than unRAID?

One of the steps is to backup the existing SBR but I don't believe that is the WHOLE firmware.  I would ask on the thread I posted a link too.  It should be possible to get it back I would think.  I didn't bother because I will not be selling my 5 and I do not want it as a raid card.  You can burn a raid mode on it (5IR.bat) but I have a feeling it isn't the same as the original firmware.
