spankydog101 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Hello all noob here. I am trying to setup a new system and having an issue with some of my SAS drives not showing up as available array devices. I have 8x HUS724040ALS640 4TB hard drives that will go in the system. That being said I purchased them in 2 batches. Batch one was 3 drives in version A1C4 which all seem to show up nicely however batch 2 was 5 drives that are in version A152 and for some reason I cant get any of these drives to show as available array devices. The strange thing is that ALL the drives show up in my Tools/System Devices/SCSI devices list however the ones with version A152 do not show a size. I am using an Fatal1ty x79 MB with a LSI 9200-8i flashed with v20 IT firmware. On a separate but maybe important note for some reason when i get into the BIOS for the (LSI 9200-8i) my keyboard no longer works (i even tried PS/2) so i have not really been able to configure the card. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment

spankydog101 Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 Unfortunately I don't have another controller to try. And as mentioned the strange this is that when I try to go into the BIOS of the card the keyboard doesn't function. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
