PCIe SATA driven not detected but pcie card yes

escaparrac · Jun 6, 2022

Hi guys.

I installed a 1X SATA PCIe card with Marvell 88SE9215 chipset -> https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B07MBFWH81/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
My two drives are 4TB Ironwolf and WD Red Plus.

The PCIe card is detected, but not the two disks connected to it. I checked what I could in forums, but I don't know what to do. Disks are not detected on Proxmox, neither inside the VMs if I passthrough the PCI card to a TrueNAS VM, for example.

Is there anything I could try? At least if the drives showed up, I could do something with them. I wanted to pass the card and not the individual disks to a TrueNAS VM, but it's not working

.

Should just return this SATA card and buy another one? (if you have any recommendation let me know please, Europe shops)

Here some code that might help you.

Thank you!

does it detect the disks if you try with a linux live iso? (e.g. ubuntu/debian)?
if not, maybe the card is simply broken?

Okay, I tried everything I could and:

I used a SATA PSU cable from another PSU (Corsair -> EVGA). Both HDDs are fried now and they don't even spin :')

Things I tried:
- Changing PSU cables to the correct ones
- Changing PSU port from SATA 1 to SATA 2
- Using the PSU cable from working drives into the non working drives
- Connecting them directly to SATA ports instead of PCI Cards
- Connecting them to another PC
- Changing the SATA Cables
- Checking BIOS and motherboard config

The good news is that they were empty, so no data has been lost.
The bad news are that it's very unlikely that I get a refund, so I will need to buy new disks. If they send them back to me, I will try to tinker soldering or changing the fuses.

So guys, don't mix PSU cables, get SATA extensions or MOLEX to SATA if you need more connectors :')
