Hello! I'm preparing to expand my freenas (raidz2 6x 3tb hdd) and bought a sc826el barebone chassis with a 826el1 backplane expander. I will use a h310 IT
I found out that this expander is just a sas1 expander, and, there seems to be problems with supermicro expanders and >2tb hdd.
Is there anyone that can shine some light into actually puting 3tb disk to this backplane?, it uses a lsisasX28 chip, which is quite old. To make things worse, two of my disk are Seagate 3tb consumer drives.
I could just try putting my pool disks in that backplane but I'm scared that it could corrupt my pool. Should I dump all this and wait until I can buy a sas2826el1 expander? For the sake of my pool.
Thanks!
