5820 precision
Hi,
I have a 5820 tower precision
I have try to plug 4 disk in Flexbay
disk 1 and 2 from Flexbay 0 seems available in bios and windows
but disk 3 and 4 from Flexbay 1 aren't available in bios, Sata cable and power are plug
I try to swap disk and only disk 1 and 2 is ok
Can you tell me how have 4 disk in this tower ? It's more easy in DIY pc than dell 😢

Verifying the following:
* Are both backplane 0 and 1 identical? Remove the drives and take pictures of both for verification.
* If backplane 1 (top) is connecting to miniSAS-HD connectors on motherboard, it's not compatible with SATA. It will work with U.2 and NVMe solid state only.
* Verify in BIOS settings that all SATA ports are Enable.

I think I've found it. I swapped the power cables between the two flexbays, and it's still the one powered by the top cable that isn't working. I believe it's due to the damaged 6-pin connector.
