Title: 3ware SATA controller on SME v6.0.1-01 ** URGENT **
Post by: gatox on January 19, 2005, 08:08:31 PM

Good afternoon.

Has anyone been able to install a 3ware 8000 or 9000 series SATA RAID Controller ?

My Promise SX4000Lite doesn't work at all with SME.

I need to replace my crashed W2k3 Server on a Promise controller (4x WD 200Gb IDE) with SME and SATA/RAID combination.  

Please note that SME was running inside a VMware session very happily for months now but I want to remove W2K3 from the face of this planet ;-)

Regards,

Luis

Yes,
3ware 8506-4 works perfectly on 6.01 sine 5 mounths ...
Even if not necessary, I upgrade all my SME kernel by this one :

Thxs guiguid,

I will place the order asap, since my server is dead now.

By the way does that card support 400Gb SATA drives or just 250Gb ?

Merci, thank you, muchas gracias.

Luis
