Solution
This is a hardware fault with the 12GB SAS HIC installed in the controller. In this case, the SAS HIC card needs to be replaced.
If the failure persists after replacing the HIC, follow the guidelines:
- Remove the controller and confirm the HIC is seated properly.
- In the case that hardware failure persists with 7-segment code of 94 or OF, perform a controller and HIC replacement.
Replace both parts at the same time to avoid propagating damage if any.
