I recently purchased a SAS HDD and it is not being recognized, pretty much all of the drives in the server are sata, except for this drive I am trying to add, there are 9 drives in total as you can see from the image above the SAS drive isn't being recognized, which is very weird as when I go into the LSI configurator I am able to see my 3 TB SAS drive.

Image of the problem drive below

10 to 1, it's formatted 520 block size instead of 512.

Let me go find mine recent posts.

 

eta:

 

Go search your syslog for:

Unsupported sector size 520.

 

If you see that, you'll need to reformat the disk(s).

And, welcome to the club. :D
