Added hot plug sata drive but cannot see disk from OS ?

Poweredgae R510 with hot plug dirves (SATA II).

Inserted the disk

Loaded OpenManage

Found the disk (blink)

Created a new virtual DRIVE RAID 0

Slow initilised disk, fast initalised disk

Still cant see the disk with My Computer (Windows 2008 server (R1))

Right Click My Computer , Manage, Storage , Disk Managemt does not load (im guessing this is by design due to OpenManage app)

 

What am i missing here  ? how can i get this disk online ?

 

Thank you for any help

rebooted the server , attempted to login to OpenManage console, now it cannot find any information. Logs in ok but all info is blank.

 

So i tried Right Click My Computer , Manage, Storage , Disk Managemt  .... AND NOW i can see all the drives and can format , initilised disk etc .... EH what the heck is going on ?

What OpenManage app are you using?  Array Manager or Server Administrator?  What version of OMSA are you using?
