Additional Hard Drive for Dell PowerEdge 840
By Jason | Published April 17th, 2011Client called the other day saying his server had run out of room on the hard drive which he stores all of his work files; server is a Dell PowerEdge 840. He wanted a quick solution of mirrored drives so I researched what that system could support then picked up two Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB 64MB SATA-3G. Installed it in a matter of minutes but Windows couldn’t find it.
Went into the BIOS and I noticed the SATA port was turned off, turned it on, saved the changes and booted into Windows. Everything was good from there.
