Additional drive not seen

I have just purchased an ML350 G6 with a 8 array SAS hot swap drive.  I have added 4 additional drives, but they are not seen by Windows Server 2008 R2.  All drives are exactly the same specification and size.  Can anyone help?

Re: Additional drive not seen

You need to run ACU (Array Configuration Utility) and create a new array before Windows will see the drives(s)

See http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/ProLiant-Servers-ML-DL-SL/SAS-drive-not-seen-in-Server-2008/td-p/4839097

no need to open many topics for a single problem.


Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Thanks for your help.  All sorted.  I had actually figured it out myself, but thank you none the less.
