Hi David, Apologies for the delay in response. It looks like the firmware failed to spin up the drives. You can try "arcconf RESCAN <Controller#>" and see if it spins up the drives. (arcconf can be downloaded from https://storage.microsemi.com/en-us/support/raid/ ) >From the description - I see you are using a Series-5(ASR-51245) controller, which was marked EOL in 2012. The last version of Ubuntu supported for this product was 11.04. Since there have been so many submissions (both kernel and driver), there could also be some compatibility issues between 11.04 and 20.01. Microchip no longer supports this product.
