Copey Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Hi, I've happily been using the 4no. 1.2tb SAS drives that came with my Dell R530 - No problems at all. I picked up a fifth drive (matching part number etc) that isn’t Dell branded and the server refuses to make it available as a physical drive? Standard SATA drives are detected without issue so I assume its something on/in the new drive that’s causing it... I swapped the H730 back to RAID mode, but it made no difference. Any pointers to help me resolve this please? Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Tools, diagnostics. Without that, my best guess would be low level format, 520 sector size instead of 512. Quote Link to comment
Copey Posted July 28, 2022 Author Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) Thanks - the drive doesnt seem to me making it to unraid. I can see it in the idrac and bios but nowhere else. I thought id found it using sg_map, but it looks like it was showing the backplane (BP13G+) and not the drive? lsscsi.txt Edited July 28, 2022 by Copey Quote Link to comment
