Hello,
FreeNAS doesn't see 8 of 16 identical drives on my LSI SAS3081E. The weird thing is the controller sees all the drives on boot, but for some reason they're not being picked up by the OS. If I re-seat the drives after FreeNAS has booted, they all show up. Obviously that's not a long-term solution.
I just consolidated my drives from 18 across a 16-bay primary chassis +16-bay expansion tray down to the 16 in the primary chassis. All 16 drive bays on the primary worked fine with the previous drives, so I'm not inclined to think it's the backplane or power supply.
Any suggestions?
