jumpnjet22 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Hi I was looking in to getting the LSI SAS 9211-8i looking at the reviews they said that this card does not support spin down of the hard drive. Is there any truth to this statement? If so any suggestions on what HBA to get for a reasonable cost? Link to comment
JorgeB Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 It does, unRAID doesn't support spin down with SAS drives though, no problem if you are going to use SATA drives. Link to comment

Chrysen Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 You can flash this card to new IT mode Firmware, (with dos usb or uefi usb stick) and if your server wont boot, or the LSI Card wont work try to tape pin 5+6 on front. That was my fault, now its working. My board Gigabyte Z170 gaming 5. Link to comment
