I'm in the throes of building out a 'play' server to test out things that I don't want to try on a system with live data.
It's a Dell R710, 8GB, SAS9211-8i cross flashed to IT mode with version 20.00.07.00-IT.
The oddity is that it will only show 5 of the 6 hard drives and insists on including the boot USB in the list of drives (see below).
I know I must be missing something obvious, but I can see what! I've checked connectors, the HBA is set to 'no boot devices' the drives all appear to connect into the backplane properly (been there, done that before :)), but I'm at a loss. I've set up a few similar systems (live) but have never observed anything like this.
Please point out the glaringly obvious so that I can bang my head on the desk......
Cheers
