Dell poweredge 2950 and 1950 will not see hard drive [closed]

I am trying to put in a sata drive into my dell poweredge 1950 generation 2 and my dell poweredge 2950 generation 3. The drive is a sata drive which should be supported in my module.

I was wondering what is causing it not be seen at all. The drive is a Seagate Barracuda ES. I have tested the drive in another PC and it worked fine. Is the drive not supported or is there an issue with my servers?

Answer

It is likely that this server has some sort of hardware RAID controller. In that case, you’ll need to either go into the array management utility that is available during the boot process or install the appropriate command-line RAID controller utilities to create an array and assign your disk to that array.
