I think I found a solution: http://www.cru-inc.com/products/Data-Express-DX115-SAS-SATA_6G.php This seems to clear the restricted opening of my Dell front bezel.

I ended up getting the IBM card. Did not flash it. Shows up as LSI during boot. Works great. I finally can do hotswap. Installed one additional hot swap drawer that I kept around: Startech DRW115SATBK. Only issue, it doesn't fit through...

Thanks. I run through the setup again. That fixed the problem. Of course, now I need to go through the guide and delete all unwanted channels....

Today, I noticed that my guide in MS MediaCenter is no longer updated. I checked my log and I saw a " "failed to retrieve epglistings" error. I restarted the PC with no change. I get the same error even with manual download. Does anyone...

Regarding the IBM, it can be had for less on ebay with the low profile bracket. However, I need full brackets. Are there norms for brackets? Is there a universal part I can buy or reuse?

So, is there a noticeable driver difference between the IBM and Supermicro for Windows Server 2003?

Thanks. The flashing is for the > 2TB support?

Is this backwards compatible to an older PCIx (my Dell T100)? And can it do PCIx4? I think I have an 8 slot that can only do PCIx4.

I need to add a SATA controller to a Dell T100 server. The onboard SATA does not support hotswap. Also, it needs to support a 4TB drive. And I need Windows Server 2003 drivers. I bought a Adaptec 1405. However, I learned the hard way...
