Ah thats where I was going wrong then! I started off with 8.0 then 7.0 but nothing below that i'll give 6.7 a go, let people know how I get on, thanks again and for the heads up for promox too.
Just wanted to update on this.
6.7 installs fine works really well, I would recommend using a Kickstarter file for unnattneded access.
I upgrade the CPU with a i5 7600k without needing to make any changes to bios or microcode. I am still running on the standard bios.
Now just need to configure virtual pfsense and retire my USG-3P thanks again.

Did you or anyone get anywhere with this? I have a female to female pcie cable and a Intel X530-DA2 card I can see the card powering on and evidence of life in unfi but its not being seen at all by esxi I tried all in the latest VIB file from vmware but its being superseeded so wont install I am going to make a 3d printed enclosure for the card so it wont just sit out the case like that :)

What exactly are you seeing there?

Hi ,
I am trying to upgrade the MSATA drive in these from the 16Gb supplied to 256Gb.
I know it is overkill but it is giving me CAM errors and write delayed errors, along with operation not permitted errors ATA retry command exhausted.
This is not a new drive, I had the same errors with a second hand 128Gb one.
I have destroyed the partitions and the drive should be blank.
But I get the same error messages each time.
I booted system rescue cd over serial and examined the drive whilst in the WatchGuard. Smartmon tools find the driver healthy with no errors.
I am going to try a 2.5 120Gb SSD instead of the MSATA, but I will have to order one in.
Any advise on anything else to try? Everything installs fine on the original 16GB Transcend.

CAM errors like that are almost always a bad drive or drive controller. Do you have the exact error you were seeing?

It's during the installer stage.
Everything installs fine with the original 16gb.
Anyway of capturing the installer data or do I need to manually write it down else where?
But from what I recall you choose zfs auto and it immediately says operation not permitted.
When you try and create a ufs system the drive spews these ATA timeout cam errors.
I booted system rescue cd over serial and ran smartmon tools and they pass the drive after a health check.
I agree that errors like this are normally a bad drive, just wondering if the msata port has a max drive limit?
-
I'm not aware of a limit. 256GB isn't especially large.
Can you not copy/paste the error from the terminal during the install? Or grab a screenshot?

Possibly but the screen rolls the error and returns to the installer screen.
I can definitely get the data from smartmon tools.
I have just ordered an 120gb msata and another 2.5 120gb ssd.
That will give me enough new parts to test with.

Hmm, that error sure looks like a bad drive. But it could be some low level compatibility issue with the drive controller.

I have ordered a brand new 120GB MSATA and a 120GB 2.5" SSD.
As both of the MSATA drives I have tried are second hand I have no history and can only go by the data.Odd thing that the smart data says healthy but I have seen a nearly dead drive reported as good before, so I always take the results it gives with a pinch of salt.
If I had an MSATA adapter I could try testing the drive on another machine but the M370 is the only MSATA device I have.
-
Mmm, I've got an m.2 SATA drive here that behaves similarly. It usually allows an install but throws errors continually. Shows as good in tests, though with a lot of ware. I wouldn't trust it with anything vaguely important! Odd to see the same on two drives though.
-
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.
