Not only that, but I've found that the Seagate ST3500413AS (500 GB
SATA 6Gb/s) won't work on my Intel SASUC8I HBA (basically an LSI
SAS3081E-R, which uses the mpt driver). It'll work just fine on an
AHCI port, but apparently the HBA can't successfully autonegotiate
the 3 Gb speed.
Did they work somewhat at first and then fail later, or did they just not work at all? In
my scenario, the drives worked ok for some time, but failed en masse during high load,
always one backplane failing, even after one or two of them was replaced. The errors I
got was h/w and trn errors, mostly "No Device".
It didn't work at all. Any attempt at using the drive got an I/O error (I should
have written it down), and "format" would show "Unknown drive type."
Plugging the same drive into a motherboard AHCI port worked perfectly.
