Windows server 2012 R2 hangs on boot when connecting two SAS cables

Hi,

I currently have a problem with my SOFS servers. I'm using 3 Dell Poweredge R720's with Dell 6Gbps SAS HBA cards inside to connect 3 DataOn 1640 JBOD's. I have installed all the latest (1 December 2014) windows updates, drivers and firmware in place.

When I connect both SAS cables to the HBA card Windows hangs at the boot screen (already waited 3 days to see if it just needed some time). As soon as I disconnect one of the SAS cables, the booting continues.

It doesn't matter which cable is connected, when they're connected seperately the server boots, when they're connected at the same time, the server hangs at boot time. This happens on all 3 servers. Any way to debug the bootproccess? ntbtlog.txt doesn't really tell me anything usefull...

Thanks in advance!
