Does that make sense? Not to me, but I've seen weirder things from Adaptec firmwares :) Are the drives configured as JBOD, or something else? You may segment the drives (for instance if their sizes differ slightly), so maybe some of them appear as volume segments instead of JBOD? > When booting the controller lists all disks in "legacy" mode. What > does that mean vs JBOD? I have no idea. However I've seen adapters from different builders partly (and wrongly) recognize each other on-disk headers. I've recently moved a bunch of disks from an LSI 9200 4i4e to an Adaptec 6445, but I don't remember of any particular weirdness. --=20 -----------------------------------------------------------------------= - Emmanuel Florac | Direction technique | Intellique | | +33 1 78 94 84 02 -----------------------------------------------------------------------= - -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" i= n the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
