I am building a SCSI disk array with a bunch of Seagate ST32550WD SCSI drives. They are all physically identical, but 3 of them had newer firmware and reported 2047Mb. Four of them had older firmware and reported 2033Mb. Now, I thought I could reflash the firmware on the older disks to get their capacity to match the new ones, so I went and download the latest flash for the ST32550W disks (mine are differential, hence the D at the end). Well, it sort of worked. Now, 6 of the 7 disks report 2047M, but there is one holdout sticking at 2033Mb. Seagate's technical support said that the problem is in the modepages, but they didn't specify which one - or how to change it. Has anyone else had a problem with this drive reporting the wrong capacity (and managed to correct it)? Also, a quick trip through the modepages with camcontrol reveals something strange. I can't seem to see all of the modepage data with camcontrol. Using SCSITOOL, a DOS based SCSI probe/format/diagnostic utility, I find that the biggest difference is in page 61h - so I suspect the problem may be there. However, I can't seem to access that with camcontrol. It could be an understanding problem on my end though... Is there a faq, tutorial (something beyond the manpage) explaining how to use camcontrol? Alternately, does anyone still have an old DOS SCSI modepage editors?
