I've successfully setup a server running FreeNAS-11.3-U4.1
Supermicro H11SSL-C
AMD EPYC 7251 8-Core Processor
I have 8 internal drives across 2 pools. Everything is working great but I'd like to add a disk shelf.
I purchased a NetApp DS4246 Disk Array Shelf with a LSI 9200-8e 6Gbps 8-lane external SAS HBA (recommended by the guy I bought the shelf from)
I added the HBA to the server but now the system hangs during boot with just a blinking cursor during startup.
I've read some that these cards may need to flashed or put into a certain mode. Could this be causing the hang?
When I removed the HBA the system boots up normally.
