Frank1940 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Do you actually have this card installed in an unRAID server? Your post seems to indicate this is the case. If so, please include the diagnostics file in your next post. Tools >>> Diagnostics Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 There's no driver included in unRAID for that controller, note that RAID controllers are not recommend for unRAID (or FreeNAS), you want an HBA, but for that controller to work you'd need to make a feature request for LT to add the driver (if they can) to the next release.

I know it's dont recommend to use a raid card but this card can be use as a HBA as well, Quote Link to comment
HNGamingUK Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I have been looking at getting this card myself too. From looking on the HighPoint website it says it can be used in JBOD/Non-RAID mode. Have you been able to get the card working with unRAID. Quote Link to comment
