From eBay, IBM Lenovo ServeRAID M1210. It said it was flashed to IT mode. However, this is in the dmesg:
AVAGO MegaRAID SAS FreeBSD mrsas driver version: 07.709.04.00-fbsd
mrsas0: <AVAGO Fury SAS Controller> irq 41 at device 0.0 numa-domain 0 on pci10

mrsas0: Waiting for FW to come to ready state
mrsas0: FW is in FAULT state!!
device_attach: mrsas0 attach returned 6

All the research suggests that this is a firmware issue and it needs to be re-flashed.

Downloaded the firmware from here: https://www.broadcom.com/support/do...=MegaRAID+SAS+9341-4i&pa=&po=&dk=&pl=&l=false

Tried to flash with: SAS3FLSH.EXE -0 -f SAS930~1.BIN

No Avago SAS adapters found! Limited Command Set Available!

My thought is there is a process that you need to go through to cross flash this card. I am really stuck here. Is it documented somewhere how to flash this card? Could someone provide a link or something or tell me how to make this work. Thanks!
