Hello freenas gurus!
I am finishing up my first official FreeNAS build. I have been toying around with FreeNAS for months now and I think that I now have a production unit. (no longer an experiment.)
Here is what I have:
TYAN s8229 2RU server with 12 hotswap bays (LSI SAS 2008), 4 sea-gate iron wolf 4TB NAS drives, 2 160GB intel SSD's for R/W cache 2 AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 4122 at 2.2ghz, and 32GB of ECC DDR3.
I have been reading up on SAS drives and I wasn't sure if its in IT mode. I ran these commands and this is what I get:
Is this a good sign?
I know that this is old equipment but this server was brand new wrapped in plastic in the box. It was supposed to be part of an install years ago but the project got scrapped and this server sat on the shelf never even powered on.
Thanks!
