replaced drive perc5i

Hello

I recently replaced a drive in a poweredge server 2950 with perc controller 5 / i running RAID-5. There are 4 disks on slot 0 and 2 drives on the connector 1.

Replaced drive is 0:0:1 and is stuck in the ready state.  I have tried to add as a hot spare but can't seem to get this drive to come online.  While checking this point, disc 1:0:5 is also stuck in a ready state, and not online. (I think that this was replaced by a former employee in the past)

1. can you someone explain global hot spare vs dedicated emergency and if I want to drive one.  I find this very confused and do not understand the reading that I still find.  One even told me that the replacement drive would only pick up the slack for the connector, to which it was attached?

2. how to make disk 0:0:1 online and 1:0:5 online?

3. the disk 0:0:0 is also in a State of predicted failure and I have a disc for this but I would like to firstly with these other two.  I understand, that it is unlikely to have two failed disks at the same time, but we are dealing with 2006 readers

Any help would be appreciated.  I apologize in advance for any terminology that I hacked upward and also for my ignorance on this subject.

1.

Dedicated hot spare: A disk that is ready to take the place of a disk that fails - any disk that is part of the table that is assigned the rescue. If you have a RAID 1 and RAID 5 3x1TB 2x1To, you can assign the emergency to protect ONLY the RAID 5, so if a RAID 1 drive fails, it will not rebuild, but if a disk in the RAID 5 fails, it will rebuild in who has no place to drive.

World Relief: A disk that is ready to take the place of any disk that fails - a disk that is part of a table. In the scenario above, you can assign the disk as a global hot, then regardless of what table failed disk belongs, the hot spare will rebuild in its place.

A hot spare must be at least as large as the disk, it must replace, and a hot spare must be the same type of disk (SATA/SAS) than the player he must replace.

This is not true.

2.

It depends on your configuration. Obviously you are not running just a single RAID 5, or with two drives in the State LOAN, your data table / would be gone. So, we need to know exactly the configuration that you are running.

3.

Yes, you should start with the other two, with fully redundant table and fail in good health before the disc pred. You will need to FORCE it offline before replacing... WHEN you are ready to do so.

  • Replaced drive now in lieu of a State, does that mean?

    I had a drive fail in a PV hanging off a PERC 6, and it rebuilt to the hot spare fine.  Now I'm put a new drive in the slot where the failed drive was, went into the RAID BIOS where I assumed it would be in a Ready state and waiting for me to mark it as the new hot spare, but it is in a Replacing state, not Ready, so I cant mark it as the new hot spare. Does this mean its rebuilding from the hot spare to that new drive and then the former hot spare now live drive will go back to being the hot spare again?
    

    Hello rjo80,

    Yes the hot spare is to copy the data on the replacement drive & once it's over then it will go back to being a spare disk.  On the PERC card, there is a feature that recalled the copy that has been activated & with that enabled that is why u who sees in the PERC bios.

  • Laptop HP 15 (r063tu): would replace drive HARD regular with SSD boost speed & performance significantly on my HP 15 laptop?

    Hello

    Regular HGST (Hitachi) hard drive failed on my HP 15 laptop and I chose to replace it with a spare Seagate Momentus 500 GB HDD (because of the emergency). I read in some other posts on this forum that SSDs increase startup speed and general performance much more conventional hard drives. In addition, seems SSD uses less power and generates less heat, which is optimal for laptop computers. Although SSDS are still quite expensive compared to regular hard drives (a regular 500 Gb portable HDD costs about Rs. 3500, or about $50), all in an SSD with a capacity of 240 GB Samsung / available on Amazon.in Kingston costs about Rs. 5000 (about $70). Thus, a half of the capacity of a normal HARD drive SSD hard drive costs still much more

    Would consider to replace my current HARD drive with an SSD if it's worth the investment (I intend to use this laptop for more than two years).

    Also, please confirm if my model supports SSDS, as he has probably that one Bay to hold an SSD or a normal HARD drive. Would be useful you can offer a good/model mark of SSDS as well. Thank you very much.

    See you soon!

    I support the opinion of Hüffer about SSDS and laptops.

    I replaced the spinner in my laptop HP 2011 with an SSD and it's like having a new machine.  It starts instantly and runs a lot faster, more I don't have to worry about the rotation drive going bad.

    An SSD is the best investment to improve the performance of your laptop.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A200 - recovery for HARD drive replacement drive

    Hi all,

    I have here an A200 owner said that he has just stopped working, it gives the message "BOOTMGR is missing", it was running Vista Basic. Vista recovery disc found no operating system (recovery program has written a few files from Notepad on the drive which seem to be the only things on it) install the drive in an external enclosure and try on another computer shows that the only files are the ones notebook. A disk check program found a few bad sectors.

    I intend to replace the drive, my question is what I can do. the operating system, he had a legal copy of Vista, but it came from Harvey Norman with no recovery disc (if the discs provided?) that I have to buy a new copy of the operating system.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Hi Zamica,

    I m a bit confused... As a first step, you wrote that the recovery disc found no operating system and then you wrote that he came with no recovery disc

    Anyway, if you n t have a Toshiba Recovery disk, you can order it on the Web from Toshiba site (depending on the exact model) or you can ask a service provider authorized in your country.

  • Portege R100 install XP on the replacement drive

    Help, please

    My hard drive in my R100 went bad and I replaced it and it became a nightmare to install XP.

    I spent 2 days on this subject, and I can't break! I have the original Toshiba USB floppy drive that can be accessed by cell phone and a desktop USB external CD/DVD drive mounted in a USB chassis. It's the Sony DRU - 540A. I tried everything on this forum and it does not work.

    I copied the I386 folder in the C: / once I'd fdisk and formatted it and when windows was running from the CD it came to try to find the asms file. When I run the Portege R100 Recovery Bootdisk V1.1.zip he can see my Cd/DVD drive however the virtual D: it creates, causing the PC to freeze when I run Windows NT.

    Please help because it's pretty darn painful!

    Thanks Brendan

    Why would you copy the files from the CD to your HARD drive? To install an operating system, in your case Windows XP just boot from the CD and follow the instructions given by the installation routine.

    You can change the priority of booting into the BIOS settings, or by pressing the C key laptop start upward.

  • Replace drive combo 2212 sd - r on the Satellite 1400-503

    Hello world. I have a Satellite 1400-503 through the 2212 mixed sd - r drive that makes the problems on reading and writing of cd and dvd. I want to replace but freezes when I tried to boot the laptop with other devices. The same problem also came with the replacement of the hard disk. When I handed the former parts Notepad starts. I did a bios update without any results. The local representative in Greece (where I live) wants 400 euro to replace the drive. Any suggestions please?

    Thank you George Fazakis

    Hello

    Unfortunately, it is easy not exactly to say why the laptop freezes. Maybe you used unsupported devices. You reinstall the Windows operating system after the replacement of the device?
    If this is not the case, try it.

  • HP Pavilion p2-1145 Office running very slow - time to replace drive

    I bought last November, is unfortunately just out of warranty. Last night it froze in reading just email - he says that Windows has stopped responding. He lets me not restart in Mode safe he was however extremely slow. I restarted again and press the ESC key and ran a diagnostic test that indicated that he failed the S.M.A.R.T. TEST with an error code of 303. It means the hard drive is certainly the culprit? If so I guess restore the drive to factory settings would be sterile, right? If the replacement hard drive is imminent exactly how best to on Windows 7 loading on the new drive since I did not have a physical drive that I buy?

    Thank you much for the help in advance.

    Oh that's a horse of a different color then.

    There is no W7 32-bit atheros driver of HP.

    You will need to get it from this link...

    In the grid, select the W7 32-bit driver for AR8152 ethernet controller.

    Then select the INF of 32 bits to the top of the page next you receive and download that.

  • Satellite M30 - after replacing drive DVD 0203: failure IDE #2 appears

    Hello

    I replaced the DVD unit on my Satellite M30 as it was broken. I installed the same unit (UJ - 820B), but now at startup, I get the error message 0203:Failure IDE #2 with options to continue starting in the operating system or run the Setup program (which does not offer something to solve this problem). The operating system (Windows XP sp2) loads fine, but the DVD unit is not recognized.

    Help!

    Thank you.

    Hi Paul,.

    All optical discs are delivered with a parameter of the base (master, slave, or C/salt) interface configured in the firmware. on PC, readers there are usually small switches to activate this setting to change, but unfortunately on readers portable there is not, so it is very important to make sure the new drive is correctly implemented by the manufacturer of the correct specification for your laptop.

    If you got the new drive to an ASP then you will need to confirm with them that the new drive is set correctly.

    From my experience, most third-party resellers don't advertise what settings their readers that makes get a suitable replacement that is very difficult.

    Kind regards

  • Need to replace drive HARD for Satellite 2450

    My hard drive is about to die and I can't find a replacement/Exchange. Does anyone know how? References to this topic are 000601002 TOSHIBA 03152 S. Toshiba support said they dropped the product.

    Hello

    You n t need to buy especially this HARD drive device. You can buy a new one that supports the same old properties HDD Splendido.

    To my knowledge the 2450 Sat supports an enhanced IDE (ATA-5) interface. In this case, you can buy the HDD IDE.

    Please have a look also to the size of the HARD drive sometimes the BIOS could not recognize the HARD drive because of the limitation of the size.

    What size did you use? 40 GB? In my eyes, you can use a HARD drive between 20 and 60 GB.

  • S1620CDS: replace drive HARD 4 GB by a 20 GB

    Hi all

    How to replace the HARD drive? I heard that it's located below the keyboard. HOW can I remove the keyboard, then?
    Thank you year hlp.

    [email protected]

    Hello

    You are right. The HARD drive is replaced under the keyboard.

    If you want to remove the keyboard to on this way:
    1 remove the cover of the band. The status indicator panel aims to snap
    in place. Please do not use excessive force to remove or replace. You can't lose this part of both sides.
    2. when the cover of the band is removed, remove the four screws now the keyboard in place
    3 lift the keyboard

    If I remember just the HARD drive fixed with two screws.

    Good luck!
