0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Check disk management. Is this a dynamic disk? If so, that would be why. Otherwise, removable disks are not supported either. And no, there isn't a way to use a disk that isn't on the list. If the disk should be on the list, but isn't, then that may actually be a bug, and some that needs to be corrupted, not worked around.

0 skapy Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 The disks are directly connected to the mainboard, so they are not removable like an usb drive. All disks are not dynamic disks. There are about 10 hdds in this server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Even if the drives aren't removable, the driver may mark them as so. Older intel controllers have this issue, where all of the drives are marked as removable drives, even though they're internal. That said, could you run this: http://dl.covecube.com/Troubleshooter/StableBit.Troubleshooter.exe This can/will collect information about the system, so we can look at what is going on.

0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Glad to hear it. And then yeah, the controller in the old system may have been marking some of the drives as "removable" even if they weren't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
