Areca FAQ System - Q50011012 - I've got a customer who is trying to daisy chain a 8026 behind an 8020 which is attached to a ARC-1680ix. We updated to the latest firmware but it still gets stuck on BIOS. ARC-8026 without the ARC-8020 does the same.

ARC-8026 is a self configuration expander. The SAS spec. does not suggest to plug a self-configuration expander (8026) behind a Non-Self-configuration(8020) expander. Please put the ARC-8020 behind the ARC-8026.
