New PCIE Sata Controller installled with new Hard Drive
Hi!
I've tried working through this, referring to multiple different threads, etc. but still not been able to solve.
I have run out of sata ports for my HDDs on my Ubuntu server, so purchased a PCIE 4 port sata controller. after installing this inside my server and connecting the new 3TB hard drive, I booted the system up but found I couldn't see this through the terminal; Fdisk and Gparted. On checking the BIOS, I can see the new HDD as a selectable boot device, so looks as though the driver installed okay.
The motherboard is a: Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2H and the Sata Expansion card is: 4 Port 6G PCI-E to SATA3.0 Expansion Miner SSD IPFS Adapter Controller Card (generic/not branded).
I've tried changing a few settings in the bios, such as changing initial display output to IGFX instead of PCIExpress 1, etc. but still can't get Ubuntu to see the hard drive.
On the terminal, if I enter: "lshw -c storage -c disk"
It shows 2 Sata controllers, but not the new Hard drive.
Any idea how to resolve?
