      The other one was showing errors about read write and invalid geometry and invalid primary GPT using secondary. Even writing DD zeros to it produced errors.

      Unfortunately I can not test that one anymore as I no longer have it to test.

                      @networkBob Can’t really find much on the board, can you see a header to clear BIOS Password ? If not you would require to re-program the BIOS chip, I’ve done quite a few on Security Appliances and Laptops.

                      Regards.

                        I think you may be replying to an old post there. 😉

                        Most of that has been solved or at least understood at this point.

                          @stephenw10 My bad. Sorry about that, I saw the post on a email notification so thought I’d chime in.

                          Regards.

                            Thanks everyone for the info! I realized leter that the PS was on that image. jejejje
                            Another question. It make sense to use SATA port with a SSD instead the MSATA? I saw that we can disable the MSATA PORT, so we can test on the SSD without buying another disk or removing the original.

                              Yes, if you have a spare SSD or mSATA drive you can just swap it in and retain the original driver and OS.

                                So now my M470 works flawlessly with the SSD disk but I have two issues:

                                1. The names of the interfaces: IG0 and so on BUT begining from the PCI MODULE: so my port 0 on the front of the M470 is IGB08 and so on. The extra module with 6 ports is 0 to 6
                                2. The external module, works and is detected BUT when I connect the network to these ports, the system dont detect the conection ever.

                                Have you the same issues?
                                TNX

                                  Yes, the ports in the add-on module are parsed first. I'm not aware of a six port module though. I've seen the 8 port 1G module and 4 port 10G module.

                                    @stephenw10 Sorry my mistake, it's 8 port.
                                    Apparently works well because it detects (first) but when I connect the cables the interface never detects the conection in any of the 8 ports.

                                        @stephenw10 Done! I was the port mapping on the module. WATCH M470 ports.png

                                        Perfect!

                                            @it-adminpmaria-santcugat-org for safety measures I suggest you to install and configure everything without the module, then you plug it in and configure the extra ports. Safety measures first
