Hi

We just add new drive in SC8000 with this part number 0RWV5D to replace the defective drive in our storage

but it shows as External Devices. any suggestion or recommendation to resolve this issue? 

Thanks

Hello Jaydee_23,

It sounds like it is a hard drive that does not have SC firmware.

Can you post a picture of the drive label and the label of the one you are replacing? 

I may be able to find some detail.

My recommendation would be to call in to support and they can gather your information to quote you a compatible drive.

I'm unable to get the attachments.

Could you attach them again?

Did you specify SC firmware on the drive you purchased?

Hi @Jaydee_23,

The drive you have there, RWV5D is not compatible with SC8000.

Also, did you pull this drive from an Equallogic storage?

Hi Joey C

Good day!

The old drive we pulled out from SC 8000 and the new drive ordered from dell partners

Hello @Jaydee_23,

I am sorry, but it seems a compatibility problem. RWV5D is not a compatible disk with SC8000. I suggest contacting back with the Dell partners and make sure they provided a disk compatible with SC8000.

Regards.

Hi Diego

Good Day. 

Where I can download or find the list of the hard drive compatibility matrix for SC 8000?

Hi @Jaydee_23,

The SC8000 is connected to another storage enclosure right? SC8000 does not have any drives installed on its own chassis as it is a controller itself. Can you check if the drives is connected to another enclosure, like SC220 or SC280.
