During installation of two 320gb ioDrive cards I have run into an issue that is preventing the card from working or showing as available storage. The ioDrive does show up in device manager, but the error below is display upon using FIO-STATUS command:

I have tried to remove the cards and reseat them. I have tried to flash the erroneous card with firmware again and have tried both HP and non-HP (SanDisk) drivers to no avail. I also tried the simple options like fio-format and fio-sure-erase; both failed with an error that the drive is in the wrong state for command. Lastly I tried the fio-attach/fio-detach commands with similar results.
I am beyond the replacement period so return or exchange is not an option. I would appreciate any insight or thoughts as to how to get this card out of minimal mode, etc.
