Lystopad Aleksandr,
I understood .. So you have two IBM 1TB drives, and out of those two only 1 is getting detected.
Right ?
1. Can you provide me if it is very much specific to Drive ? I mean have you tried with some other Drives ?
2. What was the observation before you migrate to "11.255.03.00-fbsd"
3. Provide me detail of drivers you are using in your setup. I will try to see on my machine.
