I have recently setup FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE on my HP Pavilion 15-p051us. Most of the hardware works correctly, however one major exception is USB, most specifically with mass storage devices. When I connect a mass storage device to my laptop (on either one of the two USB 3.0 ports or on the USB...

Hello, my issue is first faced on FreeNAS-11.2-RELEASE-U1, but it can be reproduced on plain FreeBSD 11.2, and 12.0 (even worse). Also posted on FreeNAS forum, but no replies there. So here is my setup: Here is my specs: Dell T310 (Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X3470 @ 2.93GHz, 8GB RAM) Adaptec 3405...

This is a public "note to self" that I hope will be useful to somebody out there. This evening I wanted to install FreeBSD in a VM under KVM on a Linux VM-host. Also, when I install FreeBSD with ZFS (Read: Always), I like to partition and setup the disks by hand via the "Shell" option in the...

I set a user and master password on a SATA disk drive and I can not unlock it since. After setting the pw, I've frozen the drive with camcontrol security -f Any idea? I can issue camcontrol inquiry successfully, but most other camcontrol commands fail. Especially, I can not unlock the drive...

I'm trying to spindown disks in a zpool to save energy costs. This concerns a home NAS setup. I've broken in down to a single disk. Here I want the disk to go into standby mode after 20 minutes of idle time: camcontrol standby ada2 -t 1800 What actually happens is the disk spins down...

FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p7 (GENERIC) I have a 3Ware 9750-8i controller on a Supermicro Systemboard. I have one RAID6 array from about 40TB spanned into 21 smaller volumes but only 16 of them are detected by the system. The system does dot recognize more that 16 lun's on the same BUS and the same...

On Linux I can do this simply with: hdparm -W 0 /dev/sda Is this possible with camcontrol(8)?

Hi, as we all know there is no single command to show storage devices on FreeBSD system. Some grep the dmesg command, some check /var/run/dmesg.boot file, some try camcontrol command and so on ... as I struggle to create any empathy for Linux systems I really like the lsblk command and I always...

My new FreeBSD 10.2 server consists of one SSD for the base system, several HDDs for data storage and a hot swap bay which I use for backups. All drives are encrypted with geli and I use ZFS on all internal disks. I have written a small script to automatically attach encrypted disk, import ZFS...
