HP LHII, Netraid & LVD

One thing that I did, which works really good is that I took two of my NetRaid 4943 controllers (3-channel) and flashed them with the AMI MegaRAID 428 firmware - UF82-166. All three channels work, plus you gain LVD support in the firmware. Also, AMI has w2k drivers for this card. They work great.
(The D4943 is an AMI 428 based board).

I have an LH II with a Netraid (D4943A) card in it running Win2K server no problems, updated the firmware as per George peters advice. All works fine, but a question for George how do I select LVD as my drives are Seagate Cheetah 10K LVD's but I've had to run them as SE drives, or is the LH II's cage backplanes only SE capable.

Many Thanks

Hi Marino

I thought that might be the answer, guess I stop
playing with it now and just use it as it is!

Many Thanks for the fast reply
