Hello everyone, I recently purchased a very affordable Stone Quantum Server (Intel Server Board S2400SC with two Xeon processors, 16GB DDR3 RAM, a 4TB SATA HDD, five 3TB SAS drives, one RS2BL080 controller card and one LSI SAS9211-4i card running Windows 10 inside a P4000 case). My concerns are two: first, the disks aren’t appearing in Windows—only the 4TB HDD is visible, even though all SAS ports light green. I suspect a problem with the card but don’t know how to verify it. Both cards are listed in Device Manager. Second, I need the most cost-effective RAID solution.!!!UPDATE!!! It turned out the SAS card was faulty. After replacing it, all drives are now working.
