Trying to setup RAID 1 with new SATA drives on xserve 2009 model

Trying to setup RAID 1 with new SATA drives on xserve 2009 model
I have an Xserve rack mount model Xserve 2.26 Quad Core (EMC# 2279) with an Apple RAID card, 24GB RAM (running 10.9 Server software)
Purchased two Western Digital 1TB SATA III 7200 RPM 64MB Cache Black WD1003FZEX drives
It came with three 160GB SATA drives.  I'm leaving one of the original 160GB drives for the OS, but I want to replace the 2 other drives and set it up with RAID 1 (mirrored). I bought 2 brand new Western Digital 1TB SATA drives and formatted them on another Mac through Disk Utility with Mac OS Extended (Journaled) formatting.  I then placed the new drives in the Xserve and booted it up.  After I login it immediately gives me 2 error windows saying...
"Apple RAID Card
The Apple RAID Card installed in your system requires your attention."
It has two buttons underneath this message allowing me to either select 'Ignore' or 'Open RAID Utility'
I've tried to RAID the drives the Disk Utility and through the RAID Utility with no success.
I have both drives mounted on the desktop, as separate drives, but I really need to set these up as a RAID 1.
I've been reading other forums, where others have been able to get this to work by using a jumper on certain pins (5 & 6)of the drive to back down the transfer rate to 1.5 Gb per second.  I tried that and it didn't work for me. Maybe I used the wrong pins -- I just don't know.  I'm also wondering if there is some Apple firmware that is required on these drives?  I'm asking for help from anyone who has gone through this same issue.  Thanks in advance.

UPDATE --  I had an issue with the RAID card battery, it was dead and I have since replaced it.  But I am still unable to setup the RAID 1 drive configuration.  Does anyone know if it has something to do with the faster transfer rates on these new drives.  Maybe they need to be clocked down with certain jumper settings on these Western Digital drives?  Or am I fighting a losing battle because these drives don't have Apple firmware?  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Trying to setup RAID with 2 80GB Western D and K7N2 Mainboard.

    Thank you for looking at my problem in advance.
    Here is my problem. When I go to the fastTrak setup it only shows 1 hard drive. I have both Wetern Digital 80gb hard drives connected to one IDE cable going to the ID3 connector on the MB.
    These drives are not SATA, they are just plain ATA133 IDE hard drives. Any help would be greatly appriciated! Thanks,
    Jamey

    no normally in raid they would have an ide each ,wether onboard raid or a card
    im wondering if both on the same will negate any benefits
    it either reading or writting but it can only do it to one drive one one ide at a time
    thats what i see as a problem

  • HT1553 I did the back up as instructed... Installed a larger hard drive and followed the restore instructions... Now I get a white screen with a folder icon and blinking question mark. When trying to set startup with new drive I get a bless tool error...

    If you have installed a new hard drive , you will need to have formatted it in Disk Utility correctly. This may explain your problem.
    Boot  into your 10.6 Install disk again at the top menubar > Utilities > select Disk utility and in there select your new hard drive, and select the tab Erase and choose to make the format as  Mac OS Extended Journaled. When that is finished look in the main window to make sure that the partition map scheme says GUID Partition Table.
    Now go to the Restore tab and reinstall from your backup.

  • Help with new Hard drive Please!!

    HI
    I have a K8n Neo that i have been running fine with a 80GB edie hard drive that has been running fine for the last 3 months.
    But i decided to upgrade to a SATA hard drive ( Samsung 160gb spinpoint )
    So i fitted the hard drive connected all ok!
    But when i try to load windows xp pro i get a error!
    It says:-
    An error occurred while setup was updating partition information on:
    131070 mb disk0 at id0 on bus0 on atapi [MBR] set-up cannot continue??
    I do not think it can be the hard drive as this is the secound one that i have tried!
    Can someone PLEASE help me before i go MAD!!
    Lots of thanks

    numpty,
    the following steps helped me to seamlessly migrate from IDE to a 160 GB SATA Maxtor.
    First of all I hope you still have your old IDE HD set-up as a bootable device with OS installed. Unplug your SATA drive and revert to your old PATA drive as boot.
    Second,  shut down your computer, plug in your new SATA drive and follow this thread for single SATA drive set-up Single SATA or Multiple Drive Array Setup FAQ
    save and exit BIOS, re-boot and enter BIOS again. You should now see your SATA drive in the boot order.
    Except: I do not see from your specs whether you run XP with SP2. If not, you ran into the issue of the 128 GB limit and XP will not recognize your drive.
    Do not set it as boot yet. For me, it even worked out to turn off SATA RAID again.
    Third, boot OS from PATA drive. XP should now recognize your new SATA drive and start installing the SATA drivers (I used the nForce 5.10 and had no issues). Re-boot into OS, you should now see all drives with proper drivers installed in the hardware tab.
    Fourth, get yourself a HD cloning tool. I used True Image 8.0 but there should be enough freeware cloning tools around, maybe even from the HD manufacturer itself and clone your old PATA drive to the new SATA.
    Fifth, re-boot into BIOS and set the SATA drive as boot now. Save and exit BIOS, re-boot and XP should now be starting from the SATA drive.
    Hope it works, I keep my fingers crossed

  • I am trying to setup VPN with QuickVPN

    Hi I am trying to setup VPN with WRVS4400N and Quick VPN on client side. I am fairly new to VPN and did some research and looked through the manual but can't seem to get it to work so far and from what I noticed many people are having this problem. So hopefully someone can tell what the problem is or at least point to right direction on solving this.
    Basically it gives the "Failed to establish connection" generic error, shows it almost instantly..
    It also showed the certificate error before but then I read about putting it in the installation directory and it stopped showing it, and whats strange is later I removed it but it doesnt show the error any longer, so don't know if its caching it somewhere or what can be going on...
    In effort to look for answer and test things out I tried to connect to another location and setup a WRV200 router, I also get the same error but not instantly, it even shows "Activating Policy" but then doesn't go farther and shows the generic error...
    Also with this setup strangly it always shows the certificate error, no matter if I put one in directory or not... Even tried to name it as the WRVS4400N certificate name...
    Anyway VPN IPSec is disabled, and Client Accounts are configured and changed password several times to make sure its correct, VPN Passthrough enabled on all 3 options.
    I tried to disable Windows Router, I also have a router in place do I possibly need to open some type of ports for the QuickVPN client?
    Don't know yet whats going on if I am missing something or if there is some problem that needs work-around but if you know the answer or guesses of answer please let me know.

    I am trying to download lion with the thumb drive how do i back up my files is time machine good enough or must i transfer everything to my hard drive

    A erase of the drive or boot partition is not always necessary.
    Flashing question mark at boot could be a easy fix, sometimes it's the firmware that simply forgot what bootable volume to boot from.
    Try holding the Option key down while booting the machine, a choice of bootable options appears, select your OS X and boot up.
    When you get in, head to System Preferences > Startup disk and set it again new. This will tell the firmware what to boot from. Test it to see.
    Now if you don't have a selection of bootable options, it could be that the drive is dead, or OS X is erased or corrupted so it can't boot.
    You'll have to run through this list of fixes to see what's going on, if you need a hardware fix or what, I've also included links if you can't fix it and need to recover your data etc.
    (If it's not remmebering your boot selection then also run through the list to reset things.)

  • Iphoto crashes so tried the Alt start with new library and that worked. So now what? How to I get back to my pictures.

    Iphoto crashes so tried the Alt start with new library and that worked. So now what? How to I get back to my pictures.

    That shows you that iPhoto is working correctly and whatever issue you are having is based in your original library.
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Will Time Machine with Leopard Sync With New Hard Drive and Snow Leopard?

    My computer is a 20" iMac that I bought in late 2008. The hard drive had trouble so Apple repaired with disk utility. Week later, more trouble so they did full hard drive erase. Data was backed up on Time Machine, 500GB also bought in 2008. After full hard drive erase, and reinstall of basic software, upon reboot, computer would power on then immediately off. It doesn't get past white screen. They advised a new hard drive install is needed.
    A computer friend can install a hard drive just fine for me. However, I do not have the Leopard install disc. He could do it with Snow Leopard but I am scared. I'm afraid because my Time Machine last backup was with Leopard, not snow Leopard. I do not have my application discs with me, they are in storage in another state. Thus, if upon adding replacing hard drive and installing Snow Leopard my computer won't be able to sync FILES and APPLICATIONS from Time Machine because its on Leopard I will have a problem.
    How can I either 1)Get a Leopard install disc and do that with the new hard drive install OR 2)make sure that a Snow Leopard install with new hard drive won't prevent my Time Machine from being able to install the saved FILES and APPLICATIONS if I don't have original APPLICATION (ie Aperture, Photoshop) with me? Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Hi, and welcome to the forums.
    That Mac should have come with Leopard. If so, call AppleCare. They'll send you replacement discs for a nominal fee.
    Once this is sorted out, make a 8-10 GB partition on an external HD or your internal HD, and use the Restore tab of Disk Utility to copy the Install disc to that partition. Then you can boot and run from it instead of the physical disc. It will boot and run much faster, too.
    He could do it with Snow Leopard but I am scared.
    If he does, and doesn't provide a retail Snow Leopard disc, you must buy one ($29). It's a violation of the license to share software, and you'll need a SL disc to do things like restore a Snow Leopard backup, or the Snow Leopard Apple apps, or repair the internal HD.
    Your best bet is to stay with Leopard, at least until you have access to your 3rd-party software discs.
    What you can do, however, is borrow his Snow Leopard Install disc (assuming it's a white Retail disc, not a gray one that came with his Mac), and use it to do a full system restore from your backups. That's not a violation of the license, since you don't install or use OSX from that disc; you just use the Installer utility on it to restore the Leopard OSX and all your data from your backups.

  • Can I config. a SSD with two SATA drives on a RAID pro card?

    Hello,
    I'm planning to order the new Mac Pro (hexa 3.33) and want to run OS X and my main applications off of it for speed. I was planning to get two SATA drives and connect them with a RAID pro card. Is this set up compatible (i.e. running an SSD with a RAID pro card installed in the system)?
    The reason why I'm asking is that on the APPLE build your MAC site there is a note about the RAID pro card:
    "Note: Solid-state drives are not compatible with the Mac Pro RAID Card in either RAID or Enhanced JBOD mode. To add a solid-state drive to your Mac Pro in any drive bay, you must deselect the Mac Pro RAID Card."
    Thanks for your help guys (and gals)

    Thanks. I have the Apple RAID card in my Early 2008 Mac Pro and it's served me reasonably well. I use it for RAID-5 and I don't care about booting Windows so that's not an issue for me (though I confess that I hadn't even considered the implications for Windows).
    I bought the system with one Apple drive (a 1TB Hitachi) and added three additional Seagate 1TB drives and have had no problems beyond the need to replace a failed drive, and in that case the array was rebuilt and the system is behaving well again.
    Ah, so you're talking about third-party SATA controllers that go in a PCI Express slot, to which one would connect a third-party RAID enclosure via eSATA, is that correct?
    Concerning the additional SATA ports on the Mac Pro motherboard: I don't know about the just-announced models, but MacSales was/is selling a SATA cable for the prior model--apparently that model has one additional SATA port (not two) on the motherboard.
    By the way: I had a question in another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2545031) about whether it's possible to upgrade my Apple-card-managed RAID-5 array in place. If you (or anyone else with expertise) could take a quick look, I'd appreciate it.

  • Fan Speeds, and Mirror Raid with New Internal Hard Drive

    Regards,
    I recently installed and formatted a new hard drive in my PowerMac dual 2.3 ghz computer and I have a few questions.
    1. Now that there are two hard drives do I need to do anything to ensure that the fan on my computer can keep them cool? I think the fans I have in the hard drive bay is enough, but I do not know if they will automatically set themselves to run properly. I can monitor the fan speeds and temp from iStat pro, but do not remember what level the temperature was before installing the new one.
    2. Given that my new drive is a SeaDisc hard drive and the older one is a Western Digital, will this cause any problems in creating a mirrored RAID. I believe that both are 7200rpm drives, and my second hard drive is a little larger (I will just have unused space after making the RAID). I am concerned with the fact that these two drives are from two different manufactures. Will this cause problems or drastically slow down the reading and writing of data? Has anyone else experienced problems in making a mirrored RAID from two hard drives that are not exact matches, and even come from different manufacturers?
    Any advice will help.
    Thanks
    earpshmael

    Hi earpshmael;
    Generally when creating RAID arrays the more similar the drive the less problems you tend to have.
    The real question is exactly why do you want or need RAID?
    I think so many people seem to think that RAID will solve all of their problem. I hate to tell you the bad news but it will not.
    Generally there are to varieties of RAID available using the software RAID built into OS X which are 0 and 1. RAID 0 or stripling is generally for moving large file rapidly for applications like HD video. It usually doesn't help the OS. RAID 1 or mirroring is for protection from drive failure. It is not a valid backup solution.

  • My system won't boot past POST after I plugged in my new SATA drive. (SATA noob

     
    I have a MSI K8n Neo 2 Platinum mobo with a Athlon64 +3500 and 1gig dual channel DDR 400. I currently have 2 drives set up a IDE primary (MAxtor 6Y120) and a IDE slave (Maxtor 6L080).
    I recently purchased a Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6L300S0 300GB Serial ATA 7200RPM Hard Drive w/16MB Buffer.
    It is my first SATA drive ever so non the less I am a newb. I want to use it as a non Raid media storage device while my primary IDE remains my boot OS drive.
    I plugged the SATA in to the sata one port and powered it. I enabled the SATA in the bios with RAID disabled. When the system boots up it does the memory chech and lists all the IDE devices. Then it says "Detecting IDE drives..." and just hangs there. The new drive spins so it definatly has power but occasionaly it make occasional clicking sounds.
    Once it actually booted up and windows detected it. I decided to reboot it just to play it safe but it never would get past post screen again. I can boot up the system normally when I unplug the SATA cable.
    Please help I need to know if I am doing something wrong or I should RMA the drive. THANK YOU!

  • [SOLVED] Problem with second SATA drive

    My laptop has two hard drive bays, and just recently I added a second SATA drive (moved it from my old laptop) to the extra bay.
    Now, anytime the second hard drive /dev/sdb has any heavy disk activity, it appears to cause a shutdown of the SATA port for the first drive (/dev/sda)!  Though the second drive is still fine, and I can still write to it until the system crashes from the root drive (on /dev/sda) being shutdown.
    If I don't mount and use the second drive, the first drive works just fine, and I can pound it with traffic without issue.
    I can reproduce this problem by copying large amounts of data to drive 2.
    This is when I get in my dmesg when the first SATA drive shuts down:

    I have experimented, and found that if I turn off NCQ on the kernel command line in my bootloader (libata.force=noncq), that it takes longer before the problem occurs.  Though, if I write enough to the second drive, it does still happen after a while, just greatly reduced its chances of happening.
    Is it possible that the old drive (sdb) is causing the problem?  I noticed that it is much noisier than I remember when the drive head moves around.
    Another curiosity while I was trying to duplicate the problem:
      - I start a large file copy from sda -> sdb
      - At the same time in another terminal, I do "find / -print"
      - When I hear the drive 2 head moving, it pauses the output of the "find" command.
    Every time I hear the head move, I see the find output pause.  Its almost like the drive seek on drive 2 causes the whole Sata controller to pause while the head moves.  Very odd!
    Anyone have any ideas?   I think the next thing I will try is borrow a drive from another machine, and do the big write to it to see if I get the same results.
    If it is of any help, here is some more info on the laptop:
