PowerEdge 1300 SCSI Drives being wiped

I am working on a Poweredge 1300 /700 for a customer. This
unit arrived new with hard drives blank. I low-leveled,
fdisked and formatted the drives. I put Win98 on the system,
and it was fine for 2 days. On day 3 the drives where once
again blank (Both of them). The system is running the
Adaptec 7890 controller with twin Quantum Atlas V 9.1 GB
hard drives. It originally shipped with Novell OS, or least
it was supposed to.


Thanks In Advance......

Hi Tim,

Windows 98 has never been validated on any PowerEdge Server product, however I really doubt this is the issue.

I have never seen a hard drive just go "blank" without human intervention.

Thanks for using the Dell | Talk Forums
