W680D4U-2L2T/G5 and HBA

Thank you for making such a great product.

But I can’t passthrought PCI controller because Alder Lake-S PCH SATA Controller [AHCI Mode] is greyout in ESXI hardwares. I am running TrueNAS Core for the only storage purpose (NAS).

W680D4U-2L2T/G motherboard which is running on ESXI.

SR-IOV, IOMMU is turned on.

The error “Warning: There are 1 disks available that have non-unique serial numbers. Non-unique serial numbers can be caused by a cabling issue and adding such disks to a pool can result in lost data” is keep coming…

However, this error only appears in SCSI controller but in IDE controller location this error is gone.

So…should I keep IDE option or better to go for safety with HBA (SAS9211) ?
