steps:
1. Install ubuntu - unforntuatelly you can't install it in a VM on the windows server, cause windows doesnt provide low enough access to the drives via the VM...
2. FC drivers will be already installed, if not install em
3. Install SG3_UTILS -) go to software center and search for it.
4. sginfo -l will tell you the names of the hdds along with where they are mounted - keep an eye on the hdd ids so you dont format ur own server by mistake
5. for each drive that you want to llf format, do, sudo sg_format --format --size=512 --verbos=/dev/sg1 - /dev/sg1 is the path of the drive that you got from sginfo
6. wait 1-2 hours, depending on how many drives you are doing
7. Enjoy having near SSD speeds with insane storage :) --- http://vpn.hotnoob.com
