My HP EX485 stopped working about a week ago. It has one factory Seagate 750GB and 2 WD 1.0 TB drives with the factory processor.
I removed all but the factory installed Seagate 750gb, Barracuda 7200.11. Unit Powers Up with the following light status:
- ON light - steady blue
- NETWORK - steady blue
- HEALTH - blinking blue
- HARD DRIVE bar - no light
Should I be getting some kind of light activity at the HD Light Bar? What am I missing?
I have a VOV Technology cable board with mouse, keyboard, and monitor attached. I pulled all of my drives out started the server it goes into recovery mode I can watch it work. After it boots I slide the main factory drive and run the HPMSS Recovery the server is found I have tried the server recovery on the factory Seagate 750 and Factory Reset on a new WD 1.0 TB drive. With the same results FAILURE, no physical disk on the server.
What can I try next? I'm getting this sinking feeling in my stomach.
