Yes i updated the bios to the current version. I changed some of the settings because I didn't want the array bootable. I do have a work around for this issue was just wondering if there was a way to stop bios from halting the boot process. I thought that since some others have this card they may have ran into this issue. I probably have something configured incorrectly and I'm going to go through the documentation and see if I can figure out what I need to change.
its not actually an error but a status message about the drives. I have a drive that is not initialized. I have to manually exit the bios for it to continue to boot to windows. I have initialized these drives in the bios but the same message comes up when I reboot.
So I would prefer to skip the bios and manage the array from windows. The bios always halts the boot process for these types of messages which is a pain for a headless server. Also there is nothing in the event viewer.
I pulled the trigger deal was to sweet to pass up. I will most likely use this to backup my main server. It cost me 135 dollars after taxes and shipping.
I remember doing a restore from a archived backup once. If I recall correctly you don't have to unarchive the backup in order to do the restore. I think that the archive just tells the server to sop doing backups for that client. Once you restore it seems like it moves back to a normal backup spot but if that doesn't work you can try re-installing the connector and make a new backup.
