          Troubleshooting

SCSI hot-plug drive is 
not seated correctly

Open the system and reseat the hot-plug 
drive(s). This problem is most common 
immediately after shipping.

The SCSI bus is not 
properly terminated

Open the system and make sure that the last 
device on the SCSI chain is properly 
terminated.

The drive is configured 
with a conflicting SCSI 
address

Change the device’s SCSI address to one that 
is not currently being used by the system.

The cables are not 
connected correctly

Open the system, then make sure the cables 
are connected properly.

The primary IDE device 
may be configured 
incorrectly

Restart your computer, then press 

F1

 to open 

the BIOS Setup utility. From the Advanced | 
IDE Configuration menu, set the IDE 
Controller to Both and the Primary IDE 
Master to Auto.

The drive may not be 
configured properly

Consult the hard drive user’s guide for 
instructions on how to configure the drive.

The drive cables are not 
connected properly

Open the system, then make sure all cables 
are properly connected to the controller card. 
Some systems do not have IDE controller 
cards because the IDE controller is built into 
the system board.

The drive controller is not 
seated properly

Open the system, then reseat the drive 
controller. Some systems do not have IDE 
controller cards because the IDE controller is 
built into the system board.
