Serial Numbers Not Correctly Displayed by DP

edited May 2013 in DrivePool

I just noticed that the serial numbers of the drives are incorrectly indicated by DP and DS.

Could it be my RAID card causing this problem? The RAID card indicates serial numbers correctly.

Here are some of the serial#

23FE3707

21C23707

B5763707

71FFB707

First 3 are WD and the 4th is a Seagate drive. Weird that they all end in 707. In my mind it must be the card.

    ive got the same issue

     

    but even my hard drive version has changed

     

    3 tb showing as a 2tb and then then following 3 sata hard drive connected to the same sata card all have the same firmware and part number

     

    this happened before but a reboot sorted it

     

    but think it cropped up due to a new software update

  • Has this problem been reported?

    Mine doesn't see drive type on pooled drives or serial numbers.  It sees drive type but not serial number of non pooled drives. 

     

    Might be the card  HighPoint RR2760.

    Just in case you had  played around with "UnsafeDirectIo" and set it to TRUE, try changing it back to FALSE. I just did and serial and model numbers are now displayed correctly.

    I have never played around with this setting using sil 3114 pci controller

     

    however my serial numbers are still incorrect

    AMCross: are you using the RAID or "base" firmware version of the card. It makes a difference.

    Namely... because the SIL cards are pretty poor about following standards and properly passing on SMART data. *especially* when they are using the RAID firmware.
