Hba not reading drives


Marauder

Recommended Posts

I bought a new hba, lsi 9211-8i in IT mode on latest firmware 20. 

My computer sees the device but in the storage utility it doesn’t read any of my drives. The dries are older 3tb drives. I tried installing a fairly old 1tb drive that I know works and it still doesn’t see it. Any ideas?

i haven’t tried changing out my breakout cable but I’d be surprised if both cables were bad. 

 

Unraid reads the card when checking dmesg and lspci but none of the drives.

Unless you bought the wrong kind of breakout cables.  You may have bought reverse breakout, but you need forward.

I haven’t heard of reverse breakout cables for sas to sata. These cables were used previously in a road setup on an lsi card. Granted that was 4-5 years ago. And have since been sitting in a box.
