SAS disk from RAID card (no RAID mode) problems

2016-12-23 Thread IW News

Hello,

First message here.

After looking for a solution without any luck I have found this list. I 
hope someone can help me with this.


I have an ASUS P6T Deluxe with a MARVELL 88SE63xx SAS RAID controller.
There are to identical 400GB SAS SSD drives attached to it. One of them 
has a Windows 10 installation, the other one Linux.

Grub is installed on the second disk.

Windows works as expected, but I have problems with the Linux 
installation: the desktop environment freezes for some second once in a 
while. This occurs with Mint Cinnamon, OpenSuSe KDE, Ubuntu and Manjaro 
KDE. All of them are current installations. I'm now working in up to 
date Manjaro KDE (kernel 4.9.0).
When the temporary freezes occur the mouse pointer moves, some windows 
are updated correctly, other do not and DE stops working.

When this happens always I have a system log like this:

Sometimes shorter sometimes larger.
It looks like a controller/drive/cable problem?
Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

You didn't even say what's the SSD drive model. Maybe the drive is
faulty? The cabling?

If thats the mvsas driver, god help you. I had nothing but troubles with it
for a good year or two or possibly more and it was never fixed or really
acknowledged, so I sold that card (a supermicro aoc-saslp-mv8) and picked up a
IBM m1015 (LSI 9211-8i a-like) and haven't looked back.

Basically it would reset a lot, and lock up. AND I believe it caused a lot of
silent corruption as well.


Hi,

So there is no support for the mvsas driver?

The controller is integrated in the motherboard. I could by a PCIe one
but, what's the deal them?

Thank you.
