October 20, 20214 yr I've recently shucked my Seagate Desktop Drive; which was loaded with a Seagate ST8000DM004. When I install the drive into the server like the other drives in my case, unraid doesn't seem to detect the drive. I've attempted the 3.3v mod with no such luck. I was able to get unraid to detect the drive if I connect it via a USB Sata Dock. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Rudy

October 22, 20214 yr Author I still haven't had a change to give this a try. I should mention that I am using a Dell H200 6Gbps HBA LSI 9211, to connect my drives but I see what you're saying here. I'll follow up once I'm able to tinker. thanks again!

October 28, 20214 yr Author Thanks JorgeB, just wanted to follow up and say the issue was with the icyDock that I'm using. Works like a charm connected directly to the HBA. Thanks!
