O.K. now this thing is playing tricks with my mind:

I tried one drive in the lower bay (when the carriage is on its side), with the same result: 1x2 blinks and Assist can't find it.

Then I tried the same drive in the other bay. Seemingly the same result. But this time when I reach over to power it down I seem to hear disk activity. Or maybe not. The disk light doesn't show it. It just keeps its same stately double-blink pattern.

It's probably nothing. But maybe I should let it sit a while longer in case it's checking the disk or some such?

Or maybe I'm finally losing it.

I'll report back.

Thanks,
DAR
