I own 2x 71605e cards to run my UnRaid server and they are set to run in HBA mode however they only work when they are alone in the system.  If I put in both cards the second card locks up and will not mount the drives while the first card will mount the drives just fine. 

 

I believe this problem is likely due to the driver issue I have shown above where there is actually 2 different aacraid drivers for Linux based on the cards you use

 

I am wondering if the 50667 driver will work correctly for the HBA cards and I assume it will, however the 50663 driver does not work correctly for the other cards. 

 

Can we please replace the 50663 driver with the 50667 driver?

 

Thanks
