All,

I recently installed a couple of used SSA drives for a customer. After
running cfgmgr, I get one of the drives with a pdisk, but no corresponding
hdisk.

I am aware that the most likely cause of this is that this drive was
previously attached to an SSA raid controller, and now is not.

Is there a way, without connecting to a raid controller, to "reset" this
drive such that it can be used on this older non-raid SSA controller?

TIA...

-Lloyd
