    Oracle-branded HGST drives unusable in KTN-STL3?

    Sure! This one seems like way more output. It's on a drive that finished the reformat to 512-byte sectors. sudo sdparm -all /dev/sg5 /dev/sg5: HITACHI HUS72404CLAR4000 H3B0 Direct access device specific parameters: WP=0 DPOFUA=1 Read write error recovery [rw] mode page [PS=1]...

    Oracle-branded HGST drives unusable in KTN-STL3?

    So a conclusion to the saga - seller agreed to a return and I bought a new batch of drives. Same exact model, HUS724040ALS640, just not rebadged with the SUN/Oracle part number. Drives show up, they've got 520-byte blocks, but otherwise seem to be behaving much better. sudo sg_format /dev/sg2...

    Oracle-branded HGST drives unusable in KTN-STL3?

    Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to be the same issue - mine don't give any IO errors, they just simply don't come up properly. [ 4081.309764] sd 1:0:13:0: [sde] Read Capacity(16) failed: Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_OK [ 4081.309771] sd 1:0:13:0: [sde] Sense Key : Not Ready...

    Oracle-branded HGST drives unusable in KTN-STL3?

    I'll need to buy an SFF-8284 cable to go direct from the HBA to the drives, which apparently also requires an external power supply since the SFF-8088 doesn't include power connections. I'm not sure if it makes sense to buy all that, or just return the drives and get ones that won't require all...

    EMC KTN-STL3 15 bay chassis

    Hi all, Having some issues with my KTN-STL3, a 9200-8i, HGST H7240AS60SUN4.0T drives, and the 303-115-003D interposers. The drives don't seem to spin up properly, or at least aren't full coming online. Here's what dmesg has to say: [ 537.342364] sd 1:0:5:0: [sdh] Spinning up disk... [...

    Oracle-branded HGST drives unusable in KTN-STL3?

    I discovered these drives are also known as HGST model # HUS724040ALS640. I found firmware revision A320 for that model and attempted to load with sg_write_buffer, but it appears the drives still cannot be accessed in any way: ~$ sudo sg_write_buffer -vvvvv -m 5 --in HUS724040ALS640_A320.bin...

    Oracle-branded HGST drives unusable in KTN-STL3?

    I linked the eBay seller in the OP. I got these for $15/ea which is still pretty good, considering I only bought 5. They advertise them as having been tested fully working with a 9300-8i so I'm fairly confident the drives themselves are not faulty. I wouldn't think the 9200-8e should have any...

    Oracle-branded HGST drives unusable in KTN-STL3?

    Hi all, Recently got some 4TB Oracle-Branded HGST drives with the hopes of using them in my storage array, but it appears they must have some kind of custom firmware that prevents them from being used outside of Oracle systems. The drives show up fine on my proxmox host, but the drives seem...
