Bios limitations on number of SAS devices in 11G servers?

$

Hello.

I've got an R515 with (12) 3TB drives, bios 2.21.  I have added an LSI 9300-8e HBA to control an external storage device holding (32) 4TB SAS drives. 

The problem I have is that the bios count on bootup shows only 24 devices.  However, if you jump into the LSI bios, it will show all 32 external drives.  Also, the storage device connected to a "had-built" supermicro server with an Intel motherboard will show all (32) drives.

Is there a cap on the number of drives the R515/bios will show/count/use?  The controller is a 6GB sata/12GB sas HBA.

Thanks

jeff
