So I have a brand new SAS disk that I'm putting into a system with an unconfigured raid card. The disk is showing in a Failed state. The disk is brand new never been used before. I am pretty new to this stuff and I can't seem to find a reason besides DOA but anybody have any ideas?

Unplug SAS drive -> Set RAID Controller to Factory Defaults -> Plug SAS Drive back in (to ensure a good connection) -> Drive still failed? - NO? Proceed to config drive. YES? - Could be DOA, verify by testing in another machine.
