    SCSI HardDrive Capacity Detected Lower is low

    I have a 146GB Fujitsu being reported by the Adaptec verify utility as 8192MB.
    Also a 73GB IBM Drive being reported as 4414MB.

    The Adaptec card reports other drives correctly, this problem is with the Drive's BIOS, I think.

    If I run GPARted, the 73GB drive shows up as one 68GB unallocated partition.
    What's happening here and is there a way to rectify this?

      Is the Adaptec controller updated to the latest available firmware ? - sounds like incompatibility between controller firmware and those two drives
      better to keep quiet and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt

          This don't make sense unless the controller is from 1998 or older.

          Or HPA being set on the HDD.

              Inno 3d RTX2070 not detected - no I²C connection
              by Nikan.e
              Greetings and Salutations!

              I have encountered a faulty GPU — an Inno3D RTX 2070 Twin. There was a shorted MOSFET on the Vcore rail.
              The faulty DrMOS was removed, and the burned PCB area was milled away.
              All voltages are now good, but the GPU is not being detected.

              I found that the CS pin of the BIOS (GPU) is not being pulled low, and thus, the GPU isn't detected.
              I wanted to measure the SM_Data and SM_Clock, but to my surprise, there is no connection at all.
              I thought these pins were used for communication during startup?!?

              On all...

              Hi

              I got this laptop with bad onboard ram so edited the bios with SPD removal tool to disable the onboard ram and work with the ram slot - the laptop now posted so i thought all was good however when i put everything back together it will not boot to windows as no boot device found., In the bios is says hdd not detected, i disabled VMD in the bios but still the same, loaded windows on usb stick and windows install cannot find the hdd. I bought a second board that had water spill, repaired the damaged area and it posted ok but same issue no hdd detected.

              Acer AN515-52 SATA1 port not working no hdd detected in BIOS...
              by titomno2
              Hi guys,
              On motherboard ACER AN515-52 type LAF951P.
              I fixed issue with not starting computer (it was the PQ201 component not working properly).
              But after checking everything I have still an issue with secondary SATA connector JHD1 (for HDD typically).
              Basically some HDD spin but are not detected by the bios.

              ​

              Already tried following:
              checked the 4 data lines
              #2 RDSATA_PTX_C_DRX_P4 => CO18 (10nF seems OK) => RO24 (0Ohm measured at 0.25Ohms).
              #3 RDSATA_PTX_C_DRX_N4 => CO17 (9.68nF seems OK) => RO23 (0Ohm measured...
