Get into the RAID controller during the boot up process and see what it is reporting.
What is the state of the RAID setup?


<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a hp proliant 320s with 12 250GB SATA drives running raid5 that became unresponsive. This is running MS 2003 storage server. &nbsp;I did a cold repoot and the first 2 drives flashed as if the raid array was rebuilding and the other 10 drives were solid green. &nbsp;After about a half hour the first 2 drives became solid green and the last 10 are all flashing. &nbsp;This has been going on for over 15 hours. &nbsp;I can't get into the machine or even watch it go thru POST. &nbsp;Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
