0030 Drive not supported
258
Action
None required.
This is considered a normal part of operation. Not all types of RAID units
need to be initialized in order to have full performance. The initialize will not
erase user data, but will calculate and write parity data or mirror data to the
drives in the unit.

Event Type
Error
Cause
3ware 8000 and 9500S Serial ATA controllers only support UltraDMA-100/
133 drives when using the parallel-to-serial ATA converter. This message
indicates that an unsupported drive was detected during rollcall or a hot swap.
This message could also indicate that the parallel-to-serial converter was
jumpered incorrectly.
Action
Use a parallel ATA drive which supports UDMA 100 or 133 and check that
the parallel-to-serial converter was correctly jumpered to correspond to
UDMA 100 or 133 drives.
