SATA HDD via SATA_A or SATA_B on Power edge 2950

We use a power edge 2950 server in our lab with 32 bit Linux (Ubuntu LTS 10.03).  4x250GB SAS hard drives via (3 of them are RAID5 and 1 is for backup).  And also a 3 (single partition) external HARD drive to use for the collection of data via USB.

I tried to connected external HARD disk to the SATA_A internal port. I did the BIOS setup (it is updated) the system recognized the disc as 3000 MB. But even the BIOS and the operating system (by fdisk) is recognized the HARD drive, I couldn't reach the files.

What could be the problem? Here are the possibilities that according to me:

(1) I can't use SATA_A or SATA_B ports to connect a HARD drive

(2) there is a > 2 TB disk situation. (but I can use it via USB 2.0)

(3) in view of the LINUX version (but I can reuse it via USB 2.0)

4) there is a problem of partition type (thing 512 and 4096 bit)

What are the answers?

Is there a solution to connect the drive HARD 3 to (or ability of the lover) to use a faster speed?

Can I use a usb 3.0 PCI exp card?

Hello

If the drive is recognized in the BIOS, then it is a software problem. There is probably a problem of compatibility with the driver in Ubuntu, or there might be a problem with the file system.

Make sure that the file system is supported by the operating system. I would recommend starting a RHEL or CentOS live CD/DVD to test the functionality. If the drive works very well in one of these BONES, then this is a problem of driver on Ubuntu.

Thank you

  • Re: Tecra S3 - new 250 gb Sata hdd - windows does not recoginse

    Hi all

    I have a tecra S3-PTS30-E, which came from the company, I work for which was no longer necessary.

    I replaced the current 40 GB with two different - hdd

    Western Digital 250 GB WD2500BPVT

    Toshiba 120 GB - MK1252GSX

    I tried both separately and windows XP pro service pack 3 will not recognize either.

    I have downloaded the driver sata toshiba Web site and installed via F6 at startup, windows asks you what driver, windows 2000 or XP, I click on XP and you enter, windows continues until advising so none found HDD

    I also tried to download drivers intel after searching other threads, and it does not work through floppy.

    I also added the drivers toshiba XP ISO using nlite to create a disk slipstream and while xp is loading the disc, I noticed 'pilot toshiba raid' being installed. Same no result no hard drive found.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    > Tecra S3 - new 250 gb Sata hdd - windows does not recoginse

    According to the specifications on this page:

    Your laptop's Ide interface, as far as I know on the old IDE interface there is a limitation of LBA 28 bits, which means that the laptop can only manage hard disks up to 128 GB.

  • Tecra M5: Need support USB2 for SATA HDD

    My beautiful new Tecra M5 uses a SATA drive, but most USB enclosures still accept only IDE drives. My question is: does anyone know of a door-USB2 for a SATA drive?

    I would like a similar disk box USB2 to backup my Tecra laptop by cloning the full hard drive (using Casper XP). If/when the primary drive fails, or some other calamity, all strikes do I have to do is to replace the internal drive with USB support. (It is not so common, but my hard drive failed once, and the cloned drive saved the day).

    Until I can find a SATA support I use Acronis True Image to backup on an IDE drive images in a USB support. Even if it seems effective, I'd rather have a cloned drive because it is easier to make a recovery dummy to prove that the procedure works without risking to damage the data on the primary disk simultaneously.

    David Tong.

    Hello

    As far as I know the external uses the IDE interface.
    I have not seen cases of HARD drive external for a SATA HDD.
    But you can also use the external USB case with an IDE interface for backups. But you need a new HARD drive. But the HARD drive are not very expensive (depends on the size of the HARD disk)
    You can save the backup image to a file and then you can place the file on the external HARD drive.
    If something goes wrong with your OS, so you can use the backup file to restore your operating system.

  • Installation of a second SATA HDD in 500-304nd Pavilion

    I recently bought the Office mentioned in the topic, as well as a second 1 TB SATA HDD to add. I found the connections for a second car but unable to find a place on the computer chassis to physically install the disk. What is the secret here? Do I need a room to mount the HARD drive and if so: where can I find one?

    Thanks for your response!

    I found a simple solution to mount the second HDD:
    -J' noticed that the HARD disk that comes with the computer is mounted using the holes at the bottom.
    -J' used the screw holes on both sides of the HARD drive and those identical on the second HARD drive, using four strips of metal (with screw holes on the same distance as the thickness of a HARD drive) and eight live, to link the two together.

  • Satellite A200-1 g (PSAECE) Win XP. Need drivers for SATA HDD and GeForce 7300

    Hi all.
    I would install XP instead of Vista on my note. As far as I know, XP has no builtin for SATA driver. I found no drivers for GeForce 7300 on the toshiba Web site. So I need drivers for SATA HDD and GeForce 7300. Where can I find them?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    Why must you SATA XP drivers? You are not able to install XP because the HARD drive is not visible?

    With regard to the nVidia drivers:
    It seems that the A200 notebooks were shipped with a different hardware configuration.
    Some laptops come with the Intel GPU and some with nVidia graphics card.
    The Intel GPU driver is available on the Toshiba page.

    Graphic driver nVidia can be downloaded from the site Web of Toshiba Canada or 3rd sites like www.omegadrivers.net or www.laptopvideo2go.com

  • 500 GB SATA HDD for SL400

    If possible, how much is the maximum capacity that HARD drive my SL400 can support?

    Thank you for the kind attentions

    Thanks for all the suggestions

    I suspect that you are using an older version of Ghost.  I suggest that you contact Norton Support to find out how to work around this problem.  SATA drives need special drivers (or return them to IDE mode in the bios of the computer, but I don't know what will happen good stability when you do) to run in BACK only.

    Hi Javed Afzal


    Step 1:

    You can check if all connections for the reader are clean.

    Step 2:

    You can also check if the drive is visible in disk management. To open disk management followed the steps - below
    a. Click Start and in the search box, type Run.
    b. in the Run dialog box type diskmgmt.msc and press ENTER. This will open disk management.

     

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you

    Hello Saeed

    The SATA drive bigger than we sell to the C6100 2 TB, but we sell Nearline SAS up to 4 TB of the C6100. I see no reason for a SATA drive more 2 TB should not operate.
