SATA hard disk not available in file browser and not listed in fdisk or lshw

Asked by mark

(running Ubuntu 10.10)

I have 4 hard disks and 1 dvd drive in my pc. I dual boot between Ubuntu and Windows 7.
Windows 7 detects and works fine with all four hdds and dvd drive.
Ubuntu only seems to detect 3 disks and the dvd drive.

I can't see the drive in the file browser or in the list from "sudo fdisk -l"or in the results of "sudo lshw".

I suspect the issue may be due to the IDE channel (AHCI/IDE/SATA ?) or BIOS settings or, as when the computer boots, it shows:

IDE Channel 0 Slave: SAMSUNG HD103SJ 1AJ10001
IDE Channel 1 Master: ATAPI iHAS324 Y BL1W
IDE Channel 1 Slave: SAMSUNG HD103SJ 1AJ10001

IDE Channel 2 Master: SAMSUNG HD103SJ 1AJ10001

IDE Channel 4 Master:
IDE Channel 4 Slave:
IDE Channel 5 Master:
IDE Channel 5 Slave:

IDE Channel 6 Master: WDC WD5000AACS-00ZUB0 01.01B01
IDE Channel 6 Slave:
IDE Channel 7 Master:

IDE Channel 9 Master:
IDE Channel 9 Slave:

"IDE Channel 6 Master: WDC WD5000AACS-00ZUB0 01.01B01" is the hdd that is not listed/available.

I'm out of my depth here - I have quite a bit of software knowledge, but my hardware knowledge is quite small.

Any help very much appreciated.

Hi,

Can you find any references to WD5000AACS in /var/log/messages or in output from dmesg? Just a shot in the dark to try and narrow it down a bit.

I take it that the rest of the disks are also SATA?

@Mika Wahlroos: Good thought. I can find plenty of references to the 3 samsung hhds, and the dvd drive:
eg:
kernel: [ 2.287337] ata3.00: ATA-8: SAMSUNG HD103SJ, 1AJ10001, max UDMA/133
kernel: [ 2.657180] scsi 0:0:1:0: Direct-Access ATA SAMSUNG HD103SJ 1AJ1 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5

kernel: [ 2.646990] ata2.00: ATAPI: ATAPI iHAS324 Y, BL1W, max UDMA/100
kernel: [ 2.709205] scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM ATAPI iHAS324 Y BL1W PQ: 0 ANSI: 5

I can't find anything that looks like the other WD hdd.

I suppose this means I probably need to look at BIOS/drivers? Any thoughts in that direct?

Thanks for the response!

Since the other SATA disks do show up, and I assume they are connected to the same SATA controller as the WD disk, it doesn't sound directly like a driver issue, unless the driver has problems dealing with lots of channels or something.

Can you give more details about your hardware? E.g. brand/model, motherboard, SATA controller... I don't know much about these kinds of hardware issues myself but it might give some clues to someone.

I've put up the output of lshw below.

Is there any other information required to help me solve this?

It means the controller has no driver yet. Your controller is:

Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Device 91a3 (rev 11)

So you should find how to get that working. You may need a package or compile the driver.

After some detecting, here's some more info.

This page seems to show that the kernel modules that might work are 'ata_generic' and 'pata_acpi'.

        Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Device [1458:b000]

"

Problem is, those modules don't seem to be available on my system.
Running 'sudo modprobe -l | grep ata' does not show either.
How do I get these?

------------------------

This page seems to indicate that Marvell changed vendor ids:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1068354
http://www.pcidatabase.com/vendor_details.php?id=957

----------------------------

I ran 'sudo lspci -nnkqq' - there are actually quite a few entries that do not have 'Kernel driver in use' or 'Kernel modules'. Is that an issue?

I'm not sure about how to fix this using a drive/kernel module, but I've managed to fix it like this:

It seems that there is better support for Marvell via AHCI than IDE.

First of all, to ensure WIndows 7 still works after changing to AHCI, I followed this MS KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922976

Then I changed IDE to AHCI in the BIOS - there were three controllers to change.

After rebooting, Window 7 installed about 10 drivers. Ubuntu booted up just the same, possibly even faster. All the drives are now visible and browsable in Ubuntu.

Thanks very much @Mika Wahlroos and @actionparsnip, you were very helpful.

Great. You can load modules with:

sudo modprobe foo

and unload with:

sudo modprobe -r foo

(Replace foo with the module name)

After you load each (try BOTH loaded too). Wait 10 seconds (drives are slow) then run:

sudo fdisk -l

If you get a hit, let us know

Nevermind. Just read the last bit which said you are ok.

Don't fix what ain't broke

Glad you got the gold
