I bought a new WUH722020BL5204 20tb sas drive and it is not showing up. It is plugged into a LSI 9201-16e, booting a windows installer I can see it and it is usable. I can also see it in system devices in unraid but the capacity is blank. I've also disconnected every other drive but it is still not showing up. Any help is much appreciated!

Disk is failing to initialize, if this is a new drive it may be bad, if it's used, make sure it's not protected, it's typically with SAS drives.

It's a new drive and for some the drive was completely accessible in windows. I was able to format it and add data to it. It just wasn't initializing in unraid. Anyways I'm not sure if it was a combination of reflashing the lsi card or the many reboots but it finally showed up. I rebooted a few times and it seems fine for now.
