Hmmmm, wait, I take that complete success story back. Only one of the two backplanes connected to the controller is showing attached disks. More investigation needed.
ah, it's working. Removing the SASAddr
line does the trick. Turns out reading @marcan's original article that promoted all this helps. 😂
hello @whalecoiner , can you offer a step-by-step tutorial how you have flashed the card? I have two D2607 and would like to flash them too. I just don't want to brick them =)
I can now also report a successful flash. My first attempt failed, using the extracted sbr and changing values. For me it only worked with the patched sbr from @marcan's article. This is my backup sbr:

I then flashed the 2118it firmware. Addionally the second port only worked for me after I added the SAS WWID in flash with lsiutil.
Initially reporting as:
Post flashing reporting as:
I used the following for the
sbr.cfg
file:(Note that
SASAddr
= the value for my hardware and not what is in the sample).It took a few goes to make things stick, but now I can see the test drive that I have sitting in my backplane!
Thanks for all the hard work!
