I think I need a different kind of datasheet. I think I need access to a higher level layer (the Windows driver for the Silicon Image's controller). If I try to access low level registers I would corrupt everything. To date I was unable to receive any answer from Silicon Image. If you have any way to help, feel free to do it.

I found this little trick to enable SMART and HDD Temp monitoring in latest Silicon Image RAID drivers on RAID sets. Tested on Silicon Image 3112A and 0680A.

Open a command line window and type this:

"verifier /flags 0x80 /driver scsiport.sys" than press ENTER key

Restart your computer and check it next time you start SpeedFan

To disable it type this on a command line window:

"verifier /reset"

Restart your computer

Also check this from Microsoft:

I hope this will help SpeedFan

Has anybody checked those findings on an Intel chipset motherboard?

This is the command for Intel RAID:
verifier /flags 0x80 /driver IaStor.sys

Hi maddoc

The command should be the same for other manufacturers

I should point this command works for Windows XP and above.

Interesting. Could you upload a SEND REPORT before and after the verifier?

After every command I rebooted the computer.
I have tested with "verifier /flags 0x80 /driver IaStor.sys" - no change.
After that "verifier /reset".

Then "verifier /flags 0x80 /driver scsiport.sys" and smartie took way longer when getting data from Intel SMBus.
I'll attach the reports before and after scsiport command.

That's the point, for Intel RAID, the smart data is not reported even after using the verifier command.
You are lucky engine!
