Hitachi 7K3000 HDS723020BLA642 - NV+ & Ultra 6 Issues
I'm trying to replace 2 hard drives on 2 different boxes. One is an NV+ which has 3 1TB drives the other is an Ultra 6 which has 3 other 2 TB drives.
I'm replacing some drives that are getting errors with 2 Hitachi 7K3000 HDS723020BLA642 drives. These are 2 TB drives.
After replacing the drives I'm getting a drives are "dead" in Frontview on both boxes. These drives are on the compatibility list so I'm really stumped. It seems to me the odds of both drives being bad are slim. I did notice a note on the compatibility list about these drives. It was "P/N:0F12115". I'm not sure what that means.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I should troubleshoot this issue?
Thanks for any help.

Did you check the disk smart stats, or run vendor diagnostics? BTW, it is useful to look directly at the smart stats, since the vendor diagnostics generally pass marginal drives. Their failure threshold is definitely harder to reach than mine.Mook wrote: Hi mdgm, I did hook them up to an old XP tower I have and they worked just fine.
