February 8Feb 8 I just switched my unraid server to a new PC im using 2 HBA cards and they seem to detect the other drives alright. when i plug the drive thats not being detects into the old Unraid PC it works and it also works in windows. i took all the data off and deleted the partition from windows but i still cannot see the drive in the new unraid setup. any ideas what i could try? thanks for looking :) tower-diagnostics-20260208-1557.zip
February 8Feb 8 Community Expert How is the drive powered in the different computers? MOLEX connector involved in the computers where it works perhaps?https://www.instructables.com/How-to-Fix-the-33V-Pin-Issue-in-White-Label-Disks-/

February 9Feb 9 Author it shows up, yes. i think i can only see the motherboard sata in bios, i dont really know where to look besides system info. i did try plugging directly into the mobo too. Edited February 9Feb 9 by Booga

February 9Feb 9 Author would i just put the usb back into the old unraid pc and boot up and grab the diagnostics again?
February 9Feb 9 Author tower-diagnostics-20260208-1740.zipThere it is. i formatted the hdd in unraid and ill try it again in the new pc. Edit: Same thing. Edited February 9Feb 9 by Booga
February 9Feb 9 Author Solution so it turns out i was trouble shooting the wrong drive. once i figured that out i found a bad sata power cable. thank you for taking the time to try to help, sorry to waste your time! Edited February 9Feb 9 by Booga
