Hello all,
Please forgive me for not doing due diligence in reading all the manuals before asking this question. Or for that matter actually installing and testing. ;)
Time is not my friend....
My ultimate question is basically how well does FreeNAS work with hardware controllers the likes of LSI's SAS/SATA RAID controller 9750-8i? I have tried another 'shall be nameless' products that works well be not unless I 'buy' the support for this type of controller... I've given it a good shot with my limited Linux skill set.
I have a SuperMicro 32 drive case with above LSI 3ware controller using retail off the shelve 3TB drives. The product I'm currently testing initially allowed be to create partitions but on needing to add another one now refuses to cooperate. Been told its a driver issue.... ooook then... works on first install then not so much....
Maybe more that most people have tried on this forum but I thought I might give the question a shot...
Thanks in advance and happy to be a forum member.
