Murphy's law states this will occur at the most inconvenient time possible. The proper solution is polyimide tape, commonly called kapton tape. It's much better suited to this scenario. triple coated. im not worried. nail polish is very hard. thx for the insight though. Quote Link to comment
MaCJaX Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 This would make more sense to me if that the SAS drive NEEDS 3.3 volts on pin 3 to power up? I have exact same problem. Using a SAS to SATA converter and Molex power supply with no voltage on pins 1,2 and 3 at all. Windows detects the drives but states it's not ready because it will not spin up. I am using Sun Microsystem Toshiba 2.5 SAS drives. Quote Link to comment
