physikal Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I probably should have asked this BEFORE I purchased it, but oh well. I just purchased this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/4U-24-Bay-Storage-Server-X9DRI-LN4F-2x-Xeon-E5-2690-V2-10-Core-3Ghz-48GB-RAIL/152920206189?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Will I run into any issues using the LSI Logic HBA controllers? Or should everything on this box work well w/ unRAID? Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) No problems with the LSI controllers, though they might need to be flashed to IT mode, possible issues with the backplane since it's limited to 2TB disks., correction, not limited since it's the model without an expander.

physikal Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 Thanks a bunch! Is it a pain to flash to IT Mode? I've been searching around on that already because I have another supermicro box that's giving me hell on an LSI 9341-8i. But I haven't found any clear guides yet to determine how painful it may be heh. Thanks again for the response! Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Since they mention 9211-8i HBA it's most likely in IT mode already, but they ares easy to flash, like a bios update. Quote Link to comment
