Hi,

I don't know for this machine.

On my V880, there was a second loop going to the disk backplane.  I unplugged it, and everything started working.

I know this is pretty circumstantial, but don't know if i can do more for you.

I did exchange some emails with the guy that wrote the driver to try and fix it before, but he had no idea, and i'm guessing no time/interest in fixing this either.

Kind Regards,

-Kevin

I have not tried on my V880 but I got similar trouble on V480.

But where is the secondary loop on SB1000/E280R (having the same mainboard)? Hmm,
come to think of it, there is a connector marked with double arrow, the back of mainboard but I do
not think I have seen any cable that would fit there.
