Hi Guys,
I have a problem flashing my H310. I wanted to flash it to IT mode, and i followed this guide:
https://techmattr.wordpress.com/2013/08/30/sas-hba-crossflashing-or-flashing-to-it-mode/
Only little problem is i have a slightly different card: http://store.flagshiptech.com/dell-poweredge-perc-h310-mini-mono-raid-controller-6gb-s-k09cj/
It is situated in my Dell Poweredge r720xd.
But that should not be a problem though.
I started to flash and now i ran into a problem, which i can not bypass, and i hope some more experienced flashers here can help me out.
I first booted into Freedos and started the flash proces as discribed:
"Invalid PCIe card found in the Internal Storage slot!"
"System halted!"

This message appeard before the boot options, so i am not able to boot from the usb disk again, wich makes is hard to flash :P. When i take the raid controller out, i am able to boot into the bios and/usb drive again, but i am unable to solve the flash issue because the card is out...
So it feels like i'm kinda stuck with a bricked raid controller... :/
Any ideas how to solve this? I read something about placing it in another slot, but because it's not a default card, i am unable to place it into another slot.
I hope you guys can help me and i don't need to buy a new controller. And if i do buy a new one i'm affraid to end up with the same situation...

- megacli -AdpAllInfo -aAll -page 20 (I did this and i have the adress writen down)
- megarec -writesbr 0 sbrempty.bin (This command failed as discribed)
- megarec -cleanflash 0 (This worked out and the card was cleared)
- Reboot the system
- sas2flsh -o -f 6GBPSAS.FW (this is where the problems started)
