peter_sm Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Do I need to make any changes to the bios ? it's stated Non-RAID HDD in the specification, maybe that must be set in the bios ? or it's a default settings ?

Ford Prefect Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 ...not clear what your exact problem is. Here's my best guess... You need to disable RAID mode in the card's BIOS for all disks...not sure what this would be..."NON-RAID HDD" or "AHCI" looks promising. By the looks, this is a card with ASMEDIA chipset. You need to enable this inside the linux driver, in order to use it in unRAID. See here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=19882.0 Quote Link to comment
peter_sm Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Thanks, I will look into the settings and disable all RAID, and thanks for the link! but is this applied to V5 also? //Petre Quote Link to comment
peter_sm Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 I got this info when added the card into the server, don't know if it's 100% OK No drives connected to the card yet. it says something about Unknown device Subsystem: Silicon Image, Inc.

Ford Prefect Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 OK, looks like you have driver for it. Allright then...what does unRAID say? Does it see any disks on that controller? Quote Link to comment
peter_sm Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 No drives attached yet, need to wait to tomorrow....... Quote Link to comment
elkay14 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Since there is a kernel driver loaded for it, you won't need to do anything else. Quote Link to comment
