PERC 6/i w/ 2x1.2TB Seagate

So I'm trying to install 2, 1.2TB Seagate 10k SAS drives, but when I attempt to create a Virtual Drive, they fail, So I'm wondering, what could cause this? The drives are: 1.2TB Seagate ST1200MM0088 EMC 118000463-02 Enterprise 15mm 2.5" SAS HDD Drive

Hello,

 

That manufacturer part number ST1200MM0088 doesn't come up in our Server parts database.

 

What Server model are you working with?

 

Are these original hard drives?

 

Could you post picture of hard drive label showing the Dell part number (DP/N)?

 

We can check if they are valid for your server/controller.

Hello, when it comes to using a non Dell part, there's nothing much we can do about as it has not been tested by Dell. Sorry I can't be of help this time.

@DELL-Young E​ The seller says that it has EMC firmware, making it compatible with the R610 w/ PERC 6/i raid controller, but he said that the block size may be 520b instead of 512b.

Hi,
DELL and EMC are 2 independent companies under the same roof.
I would therefore not sign this statement.
It is best to contact the seller who has guaranteed this.

 

with kind regards Martin
