Hi,
i’m using a LSI 9600 24i HBA on a Threadripper 5955WX + Asus Sage WRX80 motherboard to connect 24x1.92TB SSDs.
The system is running Proxmox and the card is passed to a Truenas Scale VM.
The drives are a mix of enterprise Samsung, Seagate and Micron SSD, hdparm show that they support “Deterministic read ZEROs after TRIM” and trim worked with a 9300 card.
I updated to the latest firmware, i have trouble to understand all of the personality configuration but it is configured as eHBA and JBOD, i tried the latest nightly of Truenas Scale to see if a newer driver might help without succès.
This is the result :

At first this pool was as fast as expected, now it’s at most a few hundreds mb/s write speed, reads are normal.
Does anyone have experience with this card ? Is there something to configure ?
I have read a lot about this card here and elsewhere before buiying it, i’m aware that it is kind of shit with nvme, but i have never seen anybody mention problems with sata, trim or basic functionality like that, maybe i am missing something ?
