November 22, 20214 yr Hi all, I just moved 19 drives into new ICY DOCK 5 in 3 drive cages. All drives are healthy except two WD drives. One is a WD80EMAZ shucked, the other is a WD80EZAZ shucked. To narrow down the issue, I attached each of them to a USB controller and they spun right up and UNRAID recognized them as part of the array. Putting them back in a drive cage and they wouldn't spin up at all. I have tried different drive cage slots, etc. I have 3 other WD drives in the array that are working. Two are WD80EZZX shucked and one is WD80EZAZ shucked. No issues at all with them. Any thoughts on what might be going on? Thx Edited November 22, 20214 yr by bfeist

November 22, 20214 yr You said you moved them to a dock. Maybe previous you had molex to SATA power adapters.Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk
November 22, 20214 yr Author @jondak you're a genius! I just applied the 3.3V fix and they both now spin up. Thanks so much for the quick and knowledgable reply!
