Excessus Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I am having all kinds of problems with my unRAID build. In working through them, it looks like I need to get rid of the 2 SAS2LP cards and replace them with something that is compatible with VT-D. Requirements: - unRAID & VT-D compatible. - Supports up to 16 drives. One or two cards is okay. - Fast. - You can actually order from somewhere. Quote Link to comment
tdallen Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Are you in the US and willing to buy from eBay? The IBM M1015 and variations and the Dell PERC H310 are the usual alternatives to the SAS2LP. But, they're typically pulled out of servers and sold on eBay rather than direct retail. They also need to be flashed to IT mode (sometimes you can find one for sale with that already done). Quote Link to comment
Excessus Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 I am in Canada, so eBay works. Thanks for the input. These are cheap enough that I am willing to give them a shot. Quote Link to comment
