Purchased a SATA card (SATA controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Device 9215 (rev 11)) and ssd, plugged cable into card and hd, and power in to drive. The SATA card is seen in the GUI as well as lspci, however neither mount nor fdisk -l will see the new drive. Can someone please help me resolve this?

Is it a newer Hard drive that may need the 3.3v pin blocked off? Is the drive seen in the bios?

Drive isn't seen in the bios because it's hooked directly to the sata card, not the mobo. Its a newer ssd, I have no idea if there's a pin that needs to be blocked.

And I moved cables around and we're healthy again.

Thanks for the reply.

Does it have a configuration menu at the POST of the machine?

If so you may need to set something up before.

I have an Adaptec card (if I remember right) and I had to set it as JBOD (I guess) before I could see the drives in Unraid.
