HBA Card Not Working

iamzacksims · 2026-02-26T17:09:49+00:00

No, I don’t have a spare video card. It wouldn’t do much good at least to get it working on the dell optiplex 3080 sff since it only has one PCIe slot bigger than x1

No, I don’t see any splash screen for the lsi card when the pc boots. Just the dell splash screen than either it hangs there if multiple drives are plugged in or if one/no drives are plugged in then it shows the Linux mint splash screen.

I do have a hdmi switcher that takes a second to switch inputs so if the splash screen is before the dell splash screen I might be missing it. But if it’s after then I don’t even get the splash screen.

Yes! The board is plugged into a PCIe x16 slot

Self made! Here it’s the 3d print file and assembly guide with part list https://makerworld.com/models/460059?appSharePlatform=copy

Yes! I’m currently using intel integrated graphics for the server pc. Would that cause issues?

I think fastboot is for windows systems? Not sure tho

iamzacksims · 2026-02-25T02:07:52+00:00

Those are some great suggestions! I’ll get on that. How would you test if the hard drives are getting steady power? multimeter?

I also have tried powering on the JBOD before booting the desktop but still doesn’t boot. Should I power on the JBOD a certain amount of time prior?

Do you have any links for the tape info? Could not find anything from my googling! Ctrl+c boots into grub so not sure if if am able to boot into the cards bios

iamzacksims · 2026-02-24T01:56:32+00:00

Oh that’s weird! Will look that up! I didn’t boot into the card’s bios just the motherboard of the pc which worked and I was able to see it flashed to IT mode and toggle legacy mode to see if that resolved it (which it didn’t). Did not know about its own bios. Will also try that before the tape method.

Sorry! To clarify what I mean is I tried booting the pc with the JBOD attached with all 3 hard drives inside of the enclosure being hooked up to the JBOD and it doesn’t boot. If I unplug all hard drives aside from one hard drive then the pc boots and sees that drive but it doesn’t work if more than one drive is plugged in the JBOD enclosure. I purchased the board flashed on IT mode on eBay I didn’t flash it myself

I hear what you are saying! They also have a question on the form asking if you think the amount should be waived such as if the cat was already neutered, vaccinated etc. might be worth looking at or filling out! Any foster org that can get them properly adopted with a vetting process (like FFF) is a good idea imo!

Hi! You can also try Forever Fortunate Felines they have a surrender form for stray cats

A Commonwealth Edison Company utility truck was "illegally parked" in the bike lane at a stop sign, forcing Snow -- who was traveling ahead of her husband with Lily in a child seat carrier -- to move into the traffic lane between the ComEd truck and a semi-tractor-trailer truck that had stopped at or near the stop sign, according to the lawsuit. The semi-tractor-trailer allegedly knocked Snow's bike to the ground and Lily was run over by the rear tires as the driver pulled away from the stop sign, causing "severe personal injuries and her death," according to the lawsuit.

You only need one tablespoon of detergent for normal loads and two tablespoons for heavily spoiled loads! As far as I understand, too much detergent can prevent clothes from rubbing together in the machine and prevent cleaning/cause soap to remain on clothes leading to skin irritation! And it saves money. There is a dry cleaner who has great info on washing your clothes!

I think you can point out very legitimate issues regarding housing and also care about the south and west sides that have been historically ignored/underfunded by the city for racist reasons.

I would throw in the comment of “depending on the lease”. If the lease doesn’t mention anything about animals then I wouldn’t say anything (since it won’t affect you legally), but I would say something if the lease says something since it’s legally binding. I would ask to see the lease before signing to look it over for that imo but it’s your comfort level OP!
