Default Re: Snap Server 2200 Baby Steps <- Help!

I noticed you are using 2 different brand drives, this is not recommend if you plan on using raid. Mainly is that differnent mfg have different parameters.

Verify that both drives are set to master.

Install the drive with the os on top, disconnect the the bottom one.

See if it boots. if not do the factory reset and try again.

Use assist to do the inital setup.
Now check to see what the drive configuration is setup as. Change to JBOD, reboot.

Check drive capacity, if not correct enter "co de format 10000 /reinit" from debug.
Once completed, install/connect the bottom drive. Use the disk utility to format/init the drive.

Check to see if you are seeing the whole drive (>137gig), need 3.4.805 or v4

Once complete you are free to setup the disk conf as you see fit.
