August 24, 201312 yr Good evening all, i have decided its time to beef up my unraid server so have finally, after much searching, purchased a AOC-SAS2LP-MV8. I have installed the card abd breakout cable, disabled int13 and tried endless drives but it always says no hard drives detected, is there something i am missing or could anyone pleas help. Thanks Ben
August 24, 201312 yr Are you sure you have the correct breakout cable? There are forward and reverse cables -- you need a forward breakout cable.
August 24, 201312 yr Author Hi, thanks for your response. All I know about the cable is what is written on it: molex 79575-6004 Does that make any sense to you? Thanks again Ben
August 25, 201312 yr This is the one I purchased..... http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10254&cs_id=1025406&p_id=8186&seq=1&format=2 On a side-note, does anyone know what the 3-pin white connector on the top of the SAS2 card is? What should I be plugging into it? Do I need to use it? Can't find anything in the manual that mentions it. It does not appear to exist on the previous generation of this card. Thx, Brian

Thanks Ben Ben, You may have to re-flash the SAS2LP-MV8 firmware to get it working. See this thread ( http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=29052.0 ) for two examples of where this successful fixed the symptoms you are seeing. HTH, Ian
