Promise Ultra 100
Hello,
I've got a Problem with my Promise Ultra 100 with one Samsung Sv1203N atached to each channel. Sometimes when I boot the Promise detects only the second disk, when I reboot it detects both. Can somebody help? Thank you

Its a 300W PSU, and there are only 3 disks and a cd-drive and a pentium 2 400

What happens if you swap HDs? If the same channel fails, more likely the problem is in the controller (you might want to consider using the more reliable channel, as master + slave). If the other channel fails, more likely the problem is in the HD. Jim I've already done this. The disk on the first channel fails. There are only two disks, each as master at one channel. "S.

If a quick boot is used the drives might not be ready in time. Enabling the memory test might provide enough of a delay for both drives to become ready before they are polled. "S.
