Typically, on the same controller, the lowest numbered port becomes the |
| 13 |
first drive. The description of the symptom leads me to believe that |
| 14 |
your /dev/sda drive is attached to port 2 instead of being attached to |
| 15 |
port 1. Have you tried moving your SATA cable to a different port? |
