Add new HDD SAS

Hi.

I have a DL 160 G5 Server with a 1 disk (146gb).

I bought a new HD but I do not recognize the system

I have tested the initial option and RAID not recognized.

I have to do to add?

Thanks

It all depends on the storage controller in used. What kind of storage controller do you have on this server?

Hi,

you should go in BIOS(F10) -> Advanced ->
Configure SATA as -> choose RAID".

check page 14 :

Then when the server rebots you will have the F8 and will be able to create an array.

Thanks Taifur.

But I have a hdd with OS already installed.

I just wanted to recognize the disc ....... not create any RAID

Re: Add new HDD SAS

since you don't have RAID
it would be just inserting the HDD
and also
-> did you go to computer management -> Disk Management? and created a new partition???

Didn't your momma teach you to say thanks!

Re: Add new HDD SAS

Re: Add new HDD SAS

Not recognized during boot up.
Nor in the BIOS or OS W2003.

I made the first question in this post for this

The disc is new. I do not understand what happens ...
