enmesh-parisian-latest Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) Hey, I'm new to unraid and pc building in general. I picked up an Adaptec RAID 71605 card with 4 x mini SAS HD ports. I'm sitting in the Adaptec RAID Configuration Utility trying to work out if I should be in "HBA" or "Simple Volume" mode. Options are: Quote RAID: expose RAW RAID: hide RAW HBA Auto Volume Simple Volume With 4 x SATA ports to each mini SAS HD port, I'm looking at 16 drives. Is there going to be a bottleneck issue plugged into one PCI-3 slot? Any other settings I should be on the lookout for while setting up the card? Thanks!

acozad1 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I just got this card as well. I wanted to see what you ended up using HBA? Auto Volume? Thank you for the insight. Quote Link to comment

Thank you for the insight. Was a while ago, but HBA was my choice I believe. Good card, but it squeals when it gets too hot Quote Link to comment

Good card, but it squeals when it gets too hot I'm looking to get one of these and was wondering if you could expand a bit on the squealing :). The one I am looking at doesn't appear to have a fan, so not sure what would be doing the squealing! Edited September 10, 2019 by DoeBoye Quote Link to comment
