I can't seem to add new drives

Featured Replies

I was having an issue with a drive that appeared to be bad. So I swapped out the old 8TB for a 14TB drive.  I also swapped out the cables to the HBA card.  Now when I boot I can't see any new drive. I've ordered several drives for a rebuild I'm doing later this week. Thinking the new drive I'd put in was faulty I swapped it with another new drive and still it doesn't see anything. Is it possible for a HBA card to have a bad slot on one of the cables? Like where it attaches to the card itself?

I hope you did NOT try to format the emulated unmountable drive as that would wipe its contents and update parity to reflect this has been done.

I don't particularly care about that I want to add the new drive.

For anyone that may find this in the future. It would appear that some newer drives, like my Ultrastars, have new functionality that requires a signal on the 3.3v. To combat this you can simply take a small piece of electrical tape and put it over the first three pins on the power Sata connector to block the 3.3v connection. I just tested this on six drives including the one I put in the server today. They fired right up. Since I’m migrating to a build that will utilize backplanes I’m unsure if they need it there or not. However my advice here is to see if your drive needs to mod the 3.3v rails.
