6. Turn on the power to the host computer.
Reinstall the computer cover, and reconnect the power cords. Turn on the power to the host computer. Make sure
that the power is turned on to the SAS devices and the SATA III devices before or at the same time that the power
to the host computer is turned on. If the power is turned on to the host computer before it is turned on to the
devices, the host computer might not recognize the devices.
The firmware takes several seconds to initialize. During this time, the RAID controller scans the ports.
