按照本文在 Linux Ubuntu 20.04 LTS 上安装 HP Smart Storage Utilities：

我有一个 UNYKAch 服务器机架热插拔 4U 24 托架。我使用的是带有 SAS 扩展器的 Hewlett Packard P420 RAID 控制器。目前，我有 8-4TB HDD 磁盘连接到背板。这是控制器报告的当前状态：

如您所见，该工具在所有磁盘中报告“physicaldrive 1I：1：0”。
我没有使用过 RAID 控制器，这是我第一次使用。但看了最初的帖子，我以为会看到类似这样的内容：
physicaldrive 1I:1:1 (port 1I:box 1:bay 1, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
physicaldrive 1I:1:2 (port 1I:box 1:bay 2, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
physicaldrive 1I:1:4 (port 1I:box 1:bay 4, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
physicaldrive 1I:1:5 (port 1I:box 1:bay 5, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
physicaldrive 1I:1:7 (port 1I:box 1:bay 7, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
physicaldrive 1I:1:8 (port 1I:box 1:bay 8, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
physicaldrive 1I:1:10 (port 1I:box 1:bay 10, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
physicaldrive 1I:1:11 (port 1I:box 1:bay 11, SATA HDD, 2 TB, OK)
其中每个 HDD 按顺序接收一个唯一的物理驱动器。
您知道这是什么问题吗？我应该安装一些缺失的 HP 固件吗？

如您所见，“physicaldrive”在所有 HDD 磁盘中保持不变。如能提供一些帮助，我们将不胜感激。谢谢！
