Reflash LSI MEGARAID to HBA

Resources

Prerequisits:

  • LSI MEGARAID i9341-8i

  • maybe sas cable

  • maybe sas drive

  • possibility to attach card to board (for example m.2 to PCIe 3.0 16x riser :-))

  • for above you need additional source for 12V since m.2 do not cover 12V

  • maybe whole power supply

Introduction

We will try to flash MEGARAID using IT binary that efectvelly converts it to HBA disabling hardware RAID and opening possibility to connect and use any sata/sas drive without original flash limitations.
