Problem formating SCSI disk 1

[Vilse]

Hi!

I have three SCSI-disk i want to format but i can´t and i don´t understand why.
This is what have tried:

1. When starting up the system i press ctrl+M to navigate i scsi bios.

2. After that i chose "Objects" in "Management" window.

3. I chose the drive i want to format and set the drive to "Fail drive"

4. After i have started to format the hard drive i got error and can´t proceed with the format.

If i do this below.

5. I chose "Objects" in "Management" window.

6. I chose the drive i want to see information about end press "enter"

7. Then i chose "View media information"

After that i can se that the drive have 28 media errors, how can remove this error?

Does theese error have something with with error i got when i try to format the hard drive?

The bios version i use is: MegaRaid Bios configuration utility VerU823.

Thanks for helping

Best regards/ Vilse

The hard drive is of of this type:

Model: MAW3073NP
Ultra 320 SCSI/68-pin/LVD

run consistency check on drive you will find in bios where you are now. failing this do a rebuild on drive. if you fail drive then it becomes non responsive and so formatting it maybe an issue. try above first and then format. alternatively run the nice image up and format it that way.

I tried to run consistency check but when i try do this i got the follwing message:
"Cannot check consistency of a non redundant logical drive. Press any key to continue".

Hmm how do i set a drive to redundant?

I have also tried to format the drive with dban but dban can´t find the drive.
