Hi Roy, The drive order issue is likely to be persistent mapping. It can be disabled using lsiutil. I found it was enabled by default on early cards, and disabled on later ones, but changing the firmware doesn't change the origional setting. What model are the disks ? Did the origional system

Ummm that bug report says the 2 magic keywords: Jbod, and Supermicro... And the motherboard model is a close one too :O Make sure that jour jbods are configured in whatever type of bios your controller uses, every drive should be a jbod on its own. This looks just like the problem I had (and solve

Hi, your list looks very familiar to me; I had something similar on a supermicro motherboard, if you did not configure all the independent drives as separate jbods in the raid controller, the order of the drives was mysteriously swapping at boot time. Neither ZFS, neither a conventional raid on Li
