You've got a tricky setup here. It sounds like the issue might be specific to the FX8320 motherboard when paired with this RAIDZ array. The fact that it works on another board and your PC recognizes it suggests the problem is likely hardware-related or configuration-dependent. Try swapping the problematic drive with another identical one to see if the symptoms persist. Also, check for any BIOS updates or firmware issues on the FX board.
Did you experiment with another SATA cable or a different port on the computer?
Checked the BIOS update log for the MSI motherboard and saw a note about "fixed SATA definitions." After updating, everything worked smoothly. It's strange that one particular drive caused an issue with three others, but I'm relieved my data remains secure.
