Hello guys,

I was wondering if you guys could help me out with a problem I've been having. Recently I ordered 2x 12TB refurbished Seagate HDD's (inb4 Seagate). Now whenever I plug these in my homeserver wont boot past the manufacturer boot screen. However when I remove them it boots fine. It also boots fine when I reattach the 4TB WD disk I tried to replace.

I know some disks require you to tape over the 3.3v pin which I have also done it still doesnt boot properly. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing here.

Specs:

Asrock Intel 5005J

8GB RAM

3x 12TB WD white label

2x 10TB HGST

2x 4TB HGST/WD (which I'm trying to replace with 2x 12TB)

550W Seasonic PSU

The new drives are Seagate Enterprise 12TB ST 12000NM0127 btw.
