I have to add a HDD in RAID?

Hi all

I kept telling my wife to drag all of its files in Google Drive and needles to say, she never did. BAM! His cell phone died suddenly and now she doesn't have access to its records. I was about to order only a 2.5 external hard drive adapter ", but then I thought to try something else first.

I have a T620 PowerEdge with two SSD for the OS and 4 in RAID for data. In my view, are the two SSD's in RAID 1 and the other four are in RAID 5. However, I don't know if this is still important...

That said, here is / was my plan.

I took an SSD and used this forum to install its computer portable HARD drive. Then I inserted the 'new' drive to an open Bay. MY PowerEdge has a total of 12 and I used the number 7? I think that. Anyway, it wasn't the SSD was in and none of the other 4. I left it alone.

Then, I rebooted the computer, thinking that the 'new' drive would just appear in 'my computer', but of course it didn't. I'm sure that I must go and allow it, because it is not "part" of the RAID array. I mean, not really, but somewhat. If you know what I mean?

Now, my question is, can I somewhere to 'activate' the new HARD drive without being a part of the RAID 5 array? If so, how?

Thank you

p.s. it's probably cheaper to just buy an external adapter, right? Laughing out loud.

PPS. What happens again if I reconnect the second SSD in its Bay? The computer will automatically recognize it? I think that now that I did this once before? Don't recall.

Hello.

We do not advise on data recovery procedures there are to third party companies who can provide the service. Back to your questions. There is no option to install your new disk on the T620 without data loss, even outside the RAID 5 array. Yes, the cheapest option for you is to use an external adapter in which the new HARD drive will be recognized as another drive. However, there is a possibility of data corruption.

It's well re - install your SSD in the empty slot and be automatically recognized as part of the table.

  • I have both add and remove icons in Control Panel

    I have both add and remove icons of programs in my control panel.

    My Question is :-(. How can I delete one of them I think that may be causing the other problem to take a long time to fill?  Any help would be appreciated

    First of all the show all Control Panel items sorted by name by opening a window (Windows Logo key + R) Run, type, or copy and paste cmd /k %windir%\system32\*.cpl press dir (note the four spaces) and press ENTER.

    Rename the oldest double (unexpected) by typing ren c:\windows\system32\nnnn.cpl nnnn.old (where nnnn is the name of the file), and then press ENTER. Close the command prompt window. If at a later date, control panel behaves itself, the renamed file can be deleted.

    No need to code the hand something to do.

    Create your button or link just as you would for any button or link.

    In the hyperlinks tool simply add javascript:history.back()

  • PERC 710 add physical disks for RAID 5 virtual disk and keep data

    I think to set up a physical disk 4 RAID 5 array on my new PowerEdge T320.  That should give me enough space to last long.  I have two empty slots of HD.  If I need more space, later, I'll be able to add one or two additional physical disks without losing the data already on the virtual disk?  If so, how?  I don't see a way to do this in the manual of Perc 710.

    Thank you

    Andrew

    Yes, it is "doable" later.  This can be done in the PERC BIOS, but it can be done in OMSA (OpenManage Server Administrator) within the OS.

    One thing to keep in mind is the limit of 2 TB "floppy" Windows on BIOS systems compatible.  If you plan to 4x4TB disks in a RAID 10, that TB ~ 8 'disc' will be converted to the GPT and BIOS UEFI boot mode value.

  • The tool at the top of my Thunderbird email button doesn't have an option 'open module '. I have an add-on downloaded from Mozilla, how do I add to Thunderbird

    Maybe there's another tool button somewhere, but the only one I can find is when I write a new message. I have 4 options under the tool button; mail and newsgroups, address book, account settings and options. No where in these 4 find 'open module. I downloaded an add-on of highlighter recommended for Mozilla's Thunderbird, (highlighter by André Rodier 0.6.5) but I can't understand not just how to get it in Thunderbird! Thanks for your help.

    You challenge do not use the Menu bar in a window of writing.

    You must learn the shortcut of Windows to show hidden menu bars.
    Alt or F10 displays hidden menu bars.

    In the Bar Menu of MAIN WINDOW, select Tools-Add-ons
    Click the gear icon and select install module file

    The other option is to use the AppMenu. It's 3 horizontal lines. There is a choice of add-on in this menu.

  • What should I do to get the video jerky unless I have disable add-ons?

    Most of the videos I watch online is choppy, as the video goes back moving forward always forward. There are Facebook and YouTube. The sound is fine. It started about 6 months ago. I recently noticed that IE doesn't have this problem, so I think that it is something within Firefox. I tried to restart with disabled modules and it worked! Now, I need to know which add-on I need to permanently disable. I am running Windows 7 and Firefox 41.0.1. I also tried updating my Flash drive, but even after an update he always told me that he had to be updated. I did 3 times before giving up.

    Hello, drtoner, see the Test for faulty extensions to find what the problem is.

    BUT please first, turn off hardware acceleration to check if the problem is not an add-on and hardware acceleration.

    Thank you

  • I do not have the add-on 'Get Me 2.3', but Firefox is forcing me to use Yahoo search, even when I put it in Google. How can I change this please?

    Firefox is forcing me to use Yahoo search, even when I have it set to use Google for years. I read the other response to this problem, which solved the problem of the user by uninstalling "search me 2.3", but which does not appear in my modules, so I can't delete it. " How can I fix this please?

    I suspect that you need to learn about the functioning of the new search bar in Firefox 34. See if anything here helps you - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/search-bar-add-change-manage-search-engines-firefox

  • My selected themes disappear when I turned off the computer, I have to add them when I turn the computer back on. I made sure that it is set to allow the modules.

    Just in the last week or so, this has happened. I had several themes to select from, all of them are listed is no longer in the list with the exception of the default theme of list drop-down appearance. Yesterday I made I'm fixed to allow add-ons. It was the same story this morning, the appearance was back to default and my themes had disappeared. If I stay connected to the internet my themes remain the same. I have no problem with the preview of themes they will not just stay put when I turn off my computer. This is the only problem I have encountered since I've been using Firefox.

    You will need to check the line user_pref ("lightweightThemes.usedThemes", < pref data >) to see is something changed in the data stores installed light themes and compare this line in the current prefs.js file with the corresponding line in the backup of the prefs.js.
