poweredge 720 replacement drive not detected

Good Day,


i have a poweredge 720 with perc 710 raid 5. Original disk Dell cheetah 15k.7 (Seagate ST3600057SS).

I had a predicted disk failure and was shipped a replacment disk which is a 2.5 disk in enclosure item #WPJY9. This disk is 600 GB 15 k like the original.

Inserted disk into bay and it appears to have seated properly, got a good solid "click" when securing the latch.

However, I have no LED on the disk and it does not appear in iDrac.

Use the holes on the tray that place the drive as close to the backplane as possible.
