Major storage vendors like NetApp, EMC, or even HPE Format there There Drives in a spicial matter on there High End SANs. non standard sector size of 520bit or 528bit. And my RAID controllers refused to initialized drive other than the normal 512bit. We fix that!

You, Sir are awesome! I purchased 20 Seagate ST9600205SS drives off of Ebay to use in my VMWare builds using Dell R610 R710 servers but found out too late they weren't compatible because of 520 block size. Using a non-RAID Dell controller and your technique I was able to reformat them to a 512 block size. Brilliant!

I'm not a linux expert but I think you could format all at once using the "[ ]". for example /dev/sg[2-25] and it would run the command on all the drives from 2 to 25

@steaker-gi9uw 7 лет назад

Also for future use * is a wildcard so it will select everything in a folder. So format /dev/sg* would try to format everything in the /dev/ folder that starts with sg.

@Bezos404 6 лет назад

Doesn't work. I used sg[2-6] and it cancels formatting 2 as it tells "Unexpected extra argument /dev/sg3" 4,5 and 6. Seems like this doesn't run it like seperate commands, but as one command while just one format process is possible.

Not really, it is like removing all the walls in your house, and put them up again, with an extra bedroom. Even if you got an extra bed room, you did not get more square meters, and the more wall might take up a little more space.

I've been talking with another youtube streamer and he said 2 things. 1) I can get a ds2246 unit and an hba card and format my netapp drives to 512 bytes. 2) Other option apparently is to buy an hba card and use my emc vnx sae 24 dish shelf and ubuntu or linux. Or 3) is to flash my raid card to factory or something so it gets rid of the raid information. The ds2246 setup is 200$ to format my hard drives. The hba and emc route is like 20$ because I already bought a emc sae shelf and cables, and I have a bootable ubuntu usb stick. And the last option which is to flash my raid card to make it non raid is too tedious an effort. Which of these do you suggest or do you know something easier and better?

@MyPlayHouse 4 года назад

I have never tried to use a DELL EMC shelfs, so do not know if there would be any problems.

@101rockfreak 7 лет назад

To all those saying format in Linux, I'm pretty sure that the RAID Controller has to perform the formatting, otherwise it still won't recognize the disks. You could just have software RAID, but that defeats the purpose of the RAID Controller on this server. My big thought though is why? NetApp 99.99% of the time will handle the storage needs properly, and will almost always do a better job in balancing the load across all drives than the server's RAID because that's what NetApp does, and only does. Unless this is to save some power, which I get, or just to prove it can be done, which is actually really cool.

I just bought a Dell R710 server on eBay for 67$. I thought it would be newer than the Dell Poweredge R620 but it seems a lot older. The 710 supports 4 and 6 core CPUs and 1333 MHz memory. The 620 supports 12 core CPUs and 1866mhz memory. The datasheet for the 710 says it's certified to work with emc storage arrays but has no external sas plugs. It does have 2 internal ones that connect to the hard drive backplane. Can I hook those up to my emc vnx sae storage unit?

Can your RAID Controller handle a disk larger than 2 TB ? How large of a disk can the RAID Controller handle ? Do you have enough compute power to set up a "Watson" ? Or store more data than Linus ? Thank you for the video ! tjl P.S. What would you have your "Watson " do ?

Hi Tim Lipinski The raid controller build in to the Lenovo x3650 M1 can max handle 2TB drives. but it can handle 64 of them. Watson runs on "PowerPC" not x86,, as fare as I know?? and No Linus has a lot more storages,, I think I have maybe 150TB all in all -ish But I have way more then I need. Thank you for watching! :-)

Hi there! it's been a few months I am following you and watching your videos. It happened to purchase 8 Hitachi SAS 15k 600GB drives with a NETAPP firmware. I want to use them on DELL PowerEdge R310 servers. It also happened to find the same article and then I found this video. I managed to format the drives, but I would like actually to flash the drives with a most common (Hitachi) firmware or even better with the DELL's firmware. Did you had to flash/change the firmware on your drives or you left them as they were? Do you know how could I change the firmware? I do have the firmware I want to load. I downloaded that from DELL's support site. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance for your time.

unfortunately, no, low level formatting is different than the format done by an OS. However I thought it could be done with the sg3_utils. At least then it could be put in a script and left to do it's own thing for the next two hours...or possibly format the drive in parallel because I think the drives might do all the work. Might want to have a UPS during the low level format, in the old days I think you could loose a drive if the low level format is interrupted, but maybe it would fine..

Why not use linux GParted tool and remove all the partitions of the affected drives. You can sellect the drives and than click apply it's that easy. gparted.org Once all partitions are removed your raid controller wil recognise the drives and have full controll over them.
