First off, here is all of the hardware I'm using.

SuperMicro CSE-825 https://www.ebay.com/itm/SuperMicro...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
X9DRi-F
2x Intel Xeon E5-2630
64GB RAM
LSI 6Gbps SAS HBA LSI 9200-8i = (9211-8I) IT Mode Firmware v. 7.19.00.00 https://www.ebay.com/itm/LSI-6Gbps-...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
x4 WD Blue 500GB - Blank
x1 Seagate Barracuda 1TB

When the LSI card boots, it sees all of the hdds. When Freenas comes up it seems to only show a few drives. I've ruled out bad cabling.

I have all 4 Blues on Port 0 of the raid card and the Seagate on port 1 of the raid card.

I've noticed that if I shutdown, unplug Port 1, Freenas sees all four HDD's in trays 1-4. If I have both ports plugged in, it will depend on which tray I have my HDD's in. I moved them around so see which they like and the only thing I can get to work is to leave the Seagate in tray 5 and the WD's in Trays 1, 2, 7, and 8.

Another thing I have noticed is that when I boot into the LSI config, the system automatically reboots after 10 seconds.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
