    Compaq Proliant 3000 and HP NetRAID (AMI MegaRAID) with Windows 2000

    I did run some more tests and found the root of the problem. It seems that the NetRAID, Compaq, or Windows 2000 (I suspect the NetRAID), didn't like the drives I had installed. The drive I was using to test with was a 36GB drive. In a RAID5 array of 4 drives, I was swwapping one of the 18's out...

    Compaq Proliant 3000 and HP NetRAID (AMI MegaRAID) with Windows 2000

    Compaq Proliant 3000 and HP NetRAID (AMI MegaRAID) with Windows 2000

    I have a Compaq Proliant 3000 (dual 333Mhz and 512MB RAM; BIOS E39 dated 04/06/1998) with an HP NetRAID SCSI adapter. I currently have 2 x 16MB (32MB) cache on the card, but have tried 1 x 4MB and 2 x 4MB with no changes. I also ensured I was using the newest BIOS on the NetRAID (4.03). Not sure...
