=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [05:49] If a PC has an SSD and three HDDs connected, `ls /dev/sd*` should show them all, right? [06:37] Andrio: it does here [06:49] mm [07:36] On this thing it's showing only /dev/sda and /dev/sda1, which is the flash drive I booted off of. [07:38] Andrio: fdisk shows them all? [07:40] Nope. That only shows /dev/loop0 and /dev/sda [07:43] Also the drives don't seem to spin up when I turn on the computer. [07:45] well that'll be why they aren't showing up - check hardware - check they're visible in bios etc [07:47] I'm trying to work out how to do that... it's trying to boot before the display turns on [07:48] * Andrio mashes all the F keys. [07:48] oh that's fun ... try all the favourites - maybe try the pause button [07:48] and of course mash all the F keys :p [07:49] and Del [07:49] and I've seen some where Enter ... [07:52] So there are two SATA3 ports and four SATA2 ports, and the BIOS thinks only one has anything (the DVD drive) connected. [07:54] so that's the why then ... I would first off - unplug them all and reconnect - check there's no crud anywhere. I would also be wondering about the power - assuming DVD is using the old school power connector [07:58] SSD works when transplanted into my other PC using the existing cables from that PC [08:00] ok - so check the non-functioning cables in the other PC - prove/disprove those [08:01] Turns out the SATA power cables weren't actually connected to the power supply. [08:01] ... [08:01] :D [08:01] heh? [08:01] that's good then [08:01] I guess so, yeah. [08:02] well it could have been nasty ;) [08:41] The drives seem to be part of a RAID. [08:41] In a desktop PC [08:44] Trying to see whether I can look at the data on it === mouses is now known as mous
