Fibre Channel controller D6977A

[Mike Hesse]

Hi,

I have just installed a Fibre Channel controller into a Win2K advanced server, I have dowloaded the latest driver (vers 2.1) and
the system recognises the controller card with no errors. As a test have attached a single
Seagate ST336704FC drive to this controller. The device manager shows the Drive with no errors, yet Disk Management in the MMC does not show the drive to allow it to be partitioned and formatted. What can I do to get to this drive to format it and set it up?

Kind regards
Mike Hesse

First try to rescan to find new disks. In Computer Management right click Disk Management and select rescan. If disk management finds the disk and does not start "write signature and..." wizard, select diks, right click and select write signature. After that you can go with partitioning and formating.
