Hard Disk Problems and Drive Errors

The table below describes hard disk problems and drive errors.

Hard Disk Problem Action

Hard disk does not work

1. See SC101 Hard Drive Compatibility.

Older disk drives do not work in the SC101. The

green power LED flashes 4 times after power on.

2. SC101 hard disk format is required.

The SC101 hard disk data format is different from a PC

hard disk. To move a PC hard disk to the SC101, back

up the data, reformat the drive for the SC101, and then

copy the data onto the hard drive.

1. Configure the hard disk as Cable Select.

To do this, power off the SC101, change the disk

setting to “Cable Select," and then repower.

Errors: “Unable to enumerate drive”,

and drive letter cannot be added

This is a Windows issue. Even though the drive is

already mapped, Windows returns whatever letter it

thinks is the next highest.

1. Use Windows Explorer to see if a letter drive is

mapped to a shared network folder or network drive.

These mapped drives are not properly recognized by

Windows.

2. To fix this, re-map the drives with a letter toward the

end of the alphabet, such as Z. Then work your way in

reverse, (Y, X, W...).

3. Then detach and re-attach the SC101 partition. It

should get the drive letter without problem.

Unusable drive

If a drive was not successfully created,

an unusable drive may appear in the

GUI. If this happens, remove the drive.

You can use the DOS utility ut.exe from the Command

Line Interface to remove a disk drive. See the CLI

section of this document for instructions.
