I just followed your direction for updating bios on my Supermicro X8DT3-LN4F. Happy to say that everything whent well. Thank you and continue making those great videos.
How many drives and what connections can that 9210 card do? Should I look for o e of those for my 24 Bay chassis or would I need several or a better version?
Hello, I have a lsi 3ware 9690sa-414e that came in a suoermicro sc846 chassis with an x7dbe (bios says x7db8, iirc). My question for you, how can I tell if the card is in "it mode" or not (I think it's not, unraid isn't reading the couple drives I inserted), and and if it isn't how do I flash it and what do I need and where/what do I download?
Can you explain to me why LSI 9211-8i perfectly detects HGST HDN724040AL drives (CentOS 7 is installed without any problem), but the LSI configuration utility does not? The firmware version is 18.0 and the motherboard is Supermicro X8SIL-F. The motherboard has no problem seeing the SAS-connected SATA hard drives and they are properly displayed in the Boot Order. The configuration utility shows no disks just the controller itself.
Can anybody help with this... I'm unable to remove the bios. I flash with freedos, erase the firmware, add new firmware but the bios survives options 5 & 6.
i try to update bios and firmaware on a sas3 9300-8i hba , it came new with IT firmware, trying to do that with a freedos usb but so many different flashtools and files on the Broadcom site that iam lost, i think i need the .efi flashtool as i have a uefi bios (1 year old motherboard) but cant find out how to do things in dos. is it possible to flashing in windows? i see files like Installer_P14_for_UEFI with sas3flash_udk_uefi_x64_rel and flash program sas3flash.efi no idea if i need those in dos or run it in windows on some way... tryed so much , command prompt, shell.... the usb stick with freedos seems to work for itself, it boots fine to freedos but flashing is pretty weird. any help welcome!
Thanks for this video I had trouble with FreeDOS pal error, so i had to use EFI It works perfectly with the IT MODE, Have the same card, dang this thing is fast... gonna buy a second one maybe, Thanks for the amazing tutorial! :)
Could I put a Quadro K2000 in this? Any power draw issues? it draws about 50w and there is not external power. Some sites say the x8 slot does 25w, some say they do 75w. From what I saw, the power pins are all on the front before the first notch. Let me know what you think! thanks!

Awesome thank you and where can I find the LSI 2208 current driver's
Thanks a lot for this video! I was having a lot of trouble trying to use the efi shell version, and using freedos was so easy! Thanksthanksthanks :)
You made me buy a X8SIL-F board and 32GB of RDIMMs... Looks like it going to be a fun project!
Since its flashed in it mode, do those sas drives dont apear in bios?

is this the same process for resetting the hba card on the supermicro mb x10sl7? Thanks

slightly unrelated question, but can you tell me what device you used to capture the BIOS video output?
IPMI tool for supermicro has a record function :) (launch IPMI, click remote control > java applet downloads/opens then you have record in top menu)
Cool video..now if i can just find the software to do this ... 3 hours searching and reading the internet
controller is not operational a firmware hostboot is required
I have a supermicro MB and RAID card, do I still need to upload firmware for it?

is it possible to flashing in windows? i see files like Installer_P14_for_UEFI with sas3flash_udk_uefi_x64_rel and flash program sas3flash.efi no idea if i need those in dos or run it in windows on some way... tryed so much , command prompt, shell.... the usb stick with freedos seems to work for itself, it boots fine to freedos but flashing is pretty weird. any help welcome!
Will this work with a lsi sas 8888 elp
