Hi all,
I'm looking for some info regarding onboard SATA, slimline SATA and SD card port.
I just get DL 360e G8 LFF for my home lab. I wanted to install light weight OS either on SD card, or Windows Server on SSD. Problem is that It's not detecting SD card at all (i tried three of them including HP branded), does anyone has some experience with it? Then I tried connecting SSD to SATA port on board and that's the other question.
There is a SATA port called rear SATA but no power connector, I supplied power from the connector which goes to caddies and tested it on 2.5" HDD. Drive is spinning but not detected by the system. Does not matter what SATA option I set up in BIOS RAID b120i, EHCI SATA or legacy SATA. Only drives in the caddies are detected during controller initialization. Same goes for iLO only caddies’ drives are visible
I'm have done the BIOS upgrade to ver 2019 and iLO4 2.70. The only thing which changed after the iLO update was the fan speed from 26% to 38% is there any way to downgrade iLO version?
I haven't tried slimline SATA (for optical drive), I would have to order adapter cable to test it.
Does anyone have some experience with that? What's the rear SATA connector intended use?
Thanks in advance
