Ok, I've got a problem. I have 4 WD 10EACS Green drives that work fine when attatched to a rocketraid 3560 but not when attatched to the motherboard or any other system. Drives are NOT part of a raid and show as legacy drives in the RR bios. No smart errors.
Anyone got any ideas?

PS: Wanted to move the drive to another system to make room for 2TB drives.

Thanks
 
Ok, I REALLY Need some help here. I now have a total of 11 drives doing this now. 4 - WD Green 1TB and 7 Seagate 1.5TB. There's Obiously something I can do to solve this. They work fine connected to the RocketRaid 3560 but don't show at all in the bios of any computer I've tried ( 6 of them).

Please help

Connect the drives directly to the MB and format the drives?

Your post needs more specifics and I left my know-it-all tin hat in another thread. :D
 
Yes, please give us more system specs. Once we know your system and what model drives you have, we can then make a more detailed assessment. Are the drives in a software or hardware RAID configuration?

Can't format them as they are not available to be formatted.

Ok, I've got 24 drives connected to a rocketraid 3560 All work great. I want to pull the 4 WD 1TB Green drives and the 7 Seagate 1.5TB drives and move them to another computer. I deleted the raid and then pulled them from the server. I then conected them one at a time to another computer attached to the motherboard sata ports. When I boot the computer the drives are not reconized in the bios or in disk manager.

Hardware Raid. I'll have to check the model # of the drives when I get home.

I did try and put them back in the server and attached to the RR3560 and they worked fine again.
 
Are you sure the drives aren't SAS? SAS drives will not work in SATA ports. Double check.
