Converting a PE 2550 from SCSI to SATA

[Rick Prendergast]

Hello,

I am trying to convert an old PE 2550 to SATA so I can get more disk and not
pay SCSI prices.  In order to make room to be able to plug in the drives I
had to remove the SCSI back plane.  The server didn't really like that too
much:

!!*****Invalid SCSI configuration, primary daughtercard not detected*****

!!*****System halted!*****

 

Is there a way to get around this?   A utility to allow mw to change the
config?  Or some jumpers I can set??

 

Thanks, 

 

Rick
