February 4, 201313 yr Hi, Going to flash my card, and not sure if I need to do both IT & IR mode? What is the preferred way to be sure that the card works in unraid? both step IT & IR fifth steps I suppose.. ;-) but not sure. Please advise .. 1) Original Manufacturer Product Brief PDF for each LSI IO Controller chipset 2) All original Readme files which came with the manufactures Firmware Download 3) Batch files to first “LIST” what controllers were found and details about them 4) Batch files to secondly backup your current controllers Firmware & Bios 5) Batch files to Flash to Initator-Target (IT) mode AND/OR back to Integrated RAID (IR) mode //Peter
February 4, 201313 yr Author Replaying to my self found this ... IT Firmware = Straight pass through with no RAID options IR Firmware= Pass through as in IT mode, but you also have RAID options. So I’m going to use IT firmware only so that the disks can be controlled by the OS instead of the RAID features, and that's what I want. //Peter
