Hi Sorry, think it’s getting confusing :)
The physical drives not showing is in the HPE Smart array controller screen on main page, when you click on controller and go configure, then they show up but on the main screen, only the 2 x SSDs.
I’ve now swapped the 850 SSD for another 860 SSD and when i turned it on this morning, no overheating issues and so my suprise by the time server booted up and I got into the smart array screen, it showed 96% complete for auto raid rebuild. I then clciked refresh and it was done! I know they are only 256Gb SSDs but wasn’t expecting them done in coupel of mins.
The memory is a new storey… So phoned parcelforce today again as no call back Mon. Asked where parcel was as was meant to arrive monday but address issue some how, then was meant to come but hasn’t and no call back on MOnday, lady put me on hold, called Depo, seems they have a guy lookign into it since 5am this morning (its now aroudn 10:30/11am) but no update yet.. but he will contine to look and call me back.
So later that afternoon, I get a call, they ask me what it is i ordered I tell them its memory they are like ok yeah i know its a small box but we have lost the box so I need to contact company i bought from, tell them they have lost it, they will then need to put a claim into parcelforce and I will need to get them to send me another memory stick.
So go on there livechat, guy says he has raised a case and will get a update via email but.. no email so far so i’m goign to call them tomorrow and see whats up as I did ask when will they send me the memory but he said he needed a update first. Seems a bit strange as surely them raising a claim for a parcel gone missing is nothing to do with me, they shoudl surely be putting another memory card in the post asap? Will try get them to sort quickly tomorrow as I want to get this server put in its perm location and be done :)
