Customer use a SansDigital Enclosure (port-multiplier support)
This knowledge base (KB) applies to the following NVMe RAID AICs. Table 1: Support NVMe RAID AICs Support NVMe RAID AICs All products We apologize for any confusion, but we were an OEM supplier for this enclosure solution - we did not sell or market this product. The controller included with this Sans Digital product likely uses unique BIOS/driver versions – HighPoint software updates should not be used with this combination. To clarify, our controllers do not support P

What causes the alarm buzzer to sound? How do I turn it off?
This knowledge base (KB) applies to the following NVMe RAID AICs. Table 1: Support NVMe RAID AICs Support NVMe RAID AICs SSD6202 SSD6204 SSD6202A SSD6204A When the RAID is degraded or the disk is detached, the buzzer will sound. The Alarm (aka “Beeper”) is controlled by an MCU, and can only be disabled using the OOB (Out-of-Band) port. The WebGUI and CLI tools cannot directly communicate with the MCU. For more information on how to use the OOB, please refer to SSD6200
