Flashing a Supermicro AOC-S3008L-L8E to IT Mode

Recently got an X10drh-it board, and I wanted to stick with what came with the board as a “bundle” when it first came out. Anyway, I have the webpage on the old truenas forums for the 16.00.12 firmware, but it only has the firmware, no sas bios, mpt update etc… I was able to find the 9305-16i 16.00.12 firmware, with all the other updated files on Broadcom’s website. Skimming throught the readme.txt’s, it seems the 9300 and the 9305, while different chipsets, software wise it seems I can use the 9305-16i’s update package. Am I reading it wrong?

I am using the simple LSA web based flashing utility to do it, I have flashed other cards before, just want to make sure the 9305 package is compatible.

Thanks :slight_smile:

I did not, great catch, thank you! It has all the files needed to flash the three roms. Its dated 2023, so its even newer then the Broadcom version. I wonder what’s different between .12 and .14. Anyways…

Thanks again!!!
