hello all, FNG again....
Have received a HP RC3009 scsi-2 hard drive out of a older Dell server that
is " kaput ".
Yes, this model is NOT a classic (only 5 yrs old I think), so this is
off-topic, my apologies to everyone and ask that those that can help
contact me directly.
Symptoms:
Recognised and identified by scsi bus start up interegation proceedure on
my machine (Adaptec controller).
Drive spins up and seeks.
Returns "no logical drives".
What does FDISK tell you about partitions?
- don
Drive was displaying intermintant failures of this
nature and the maintance
people tried a low-level format which failed.
Diagnosis:
Failure of read head mechanism (possibly repairable) or failure of related
controller circuitry ( paper weight time ! )
Anyone know where I can get info on this model ?
