I have a MegaRaid running on my local machine. Up until this morning things were fine. Now, the drive is no longer showing up. The BIOS shows the drives are all in the proper state. However, the machine, a windows 7 x64 box no longer sees it. I tried going into MegaRaid and it just says "Servers could not be found because server may be down or server not installed in the host system" This is with MegaRaid Storage Manager v17.05.00.02. Up until I guess last night, things have been working fine. What do I need in order to get Windows to detect the raid again? I see it in device manager. I've gone as far as another instance of Windows 7 and the same issue is there. In the device manager I see the storage controller listed as "LSI MegaRAID SAS Adapter" I also tried turning off the firewall and get the same result. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok well I pulled the card and logs--I see this error in the log under megasas: "The driver has detected a device with old or out-of-date firmware. The device will not be used." The card that I have looks like a Supermicro AOC-SAS2LP-H8IR. I'm not sure what to do about this right now. It literally just stopped working out of the blue.

I don't know. That's the problem. It's hard to run down so far
