Hi folks,
Switched boards summer 2014 to an AsRock Z77 Extreme11, because I needed 12 SATA connections (10HD & 2 optical drives). Recently (as of two days ago) I keep "losing" 8 of the 10 hard drives at irregular intervals.
Only "C" and "D" drives remain connected... Optical drives are sometimes gone too.
A reboot results in a hang (PC case-fans keep spinning but boot-sequence gets stuck before post; keyboard and screen stay dead). An emergency reboot works fine and the PC starts normally, with all drives visible and usable...
Was wondering if anybody else with an Extreme11 board has run into the same or similar issues?
Could this be either a BIOS or LSI problem?
Will check my BIOS version upon next start-up as I don't know it by heart.
Thanks for reading and eventually answering ;)
