Haven't replaced the battery yet, but I'm going to live with it for now since the drives can be connected once the operating system is running after a reboot and work as intended from then on.
Hi everyone, I've been working a problem with a T7600 on and off for a few months now: I boot the machine from an SSD on one of the regular SATA ports on the main board. This works fine with both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20. I want to use a couple of HDDs in non-RAID mode on the PERC h310. And here is where it gets weird, at least to me: I can insert empty drives of any size (for instance an 8TB drive), boot Windows (from an SSD on one of the mainboard's SATA ports, as mentioned above), see the empty drive, create an 8TB EXFAT on it and use it happily until I reboot the machine.With the newly partitioned drive attached, the machine will hang on the Dell boot screen, even if I wait for hours. I can't access the BIOS configuration as long as the drive with the large volume on it is attached. But: If I create only a volume smaller than 2TB on my large HDD, the machine starts happily. My conclusion: PERC h310 can't handle non-RAID volumes larger than 2TB. But is that really true? I can't seem to find any concrete information on this and haven't seen anyone else have this exact problem. Some additional info:BIOS A17, performed a CMOS reset, makes no difference. I'm grateful for any input you can provide. Thanks in advance!
