The worst case would be if the firmware image is signed and encrypted, which I
doubt. There is a workaround for that too if that would be the case anyway.

It's probably easier to return the drive and get something not labelled Samsung…

Ouch, indeed only IB devices are readable.

Isn't it possible to somehow make the drive dump the firmware somehow,
edit it with a HEX editor (and recalculate firmware checksums) and flash
the modified .bin file back to the drive? I guess that the WWN must be
found in the firmware somewhere.

FWIW, this is what Samsung tech support had to say about the SSD 840 Pro:
"The next generation Samsung SSD 840 Pro series will have WWN. The Samsung 840
Pro is aimed for customers who need to use them on servers which is why only
the 840 Pro will have the WWN identifier."
Guess I'll get in line
I am returning the 4 drives I planned to use in the expanders, but will keep
the two I'm using as my mirrored boot pool.
My intention was to use these are ZIL and L2ARC drives, so I can do without
them for now. I've had very good luck with these Samsung drives in non-SAS
usages—quite a bit more

that's strange indeed - I've never seen two SATA drives with the same WWN. May
Samsung have doen something 'smart' here to stop people from using 'cheap'
drives for serious stuff?

Sure.
Here's the only one that can be seen in the expander:

it'd be interesting to see what WWN smartctl -l would report from these. I've
worked with SATA SSDs in similar setups, but never seen them reported with the
same WWN

Ah, I see now. Yes, all the drives report the same LU WWN Device Id in
smartctl, and I see the same constant WWN reported online (for example,
http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.linux.utilities.smartmontools.database/page=7).
I'll see what Samsung has to say.
Thanks! This at least gives me more to wor
SATA devices are not required to provide a WWN - I would guess that
they're providing the same WWN, and as a result, your SAS devices are
becoming sad.
If you could tell the expander(s) to ignore that and assign one,
that'd be neat. If there's a firmware update to fix it, even better.
If you want
Well, I enabled multipath support with 'stmsboot -e -D mpt' and rebooted and
now it seems I have two paths to what is no doubt two physical devices:

correct

So one more data point that seems to suggest that I'm getting duplicate names
from these drives. When I attach at least one of the Samsung SSDs to each

Hi all,
I'm new to the list and OI, but I've been running a Solaris box with some
version of ZFS on it for a couple years. I recently acquired a Supermicro
6047R-E1R36N. It has an X9DRi-LN4F+ motherboard, dual E5-2620s and 48GB of RAM.
I soon learned that I needed a different HBA (it comes with
