+1 It has been a while for me as well - we only have one Dell still in production, but what Paul says sounds right.

If I remember the Perc controllers correctly you need to go into the Dell array manager and create a logical disk for the 1 drive (silly since it's not really an array) After that windows should be able to see it. It's been a few years since I worked with the Perc cards though so YMMV. Paul Adams MCTS CCNA NAP From: Paul Everett [mailto:evere...@leementalhealth.org] Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 10:10 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Basic hard drive config question, probably. I have an old Dell PowerEdge 2600 which is my Exchange Server. It has a perc 4 controller with 2 channels. Channel 0 has two mirrored drives and channel 1 has three RAID 5 drives. There is an extra drive bay that I want to use as an independent drive (drive E:), but when I insert it it becomes an unknown drive on channel 0. It does not show up in Windows Disk Management. Is this something I can correct in the bios and if so, what do I need to change?
