I Need One 512 Mb Memory Chip For Ax150sci
The unit reports: The write cache is currently disabled. The write cache is disabled when faulted components are present in the system. Verify that all components in this storage system are working properly. Bring any virtual disks that were made offline back online. Replace faulty hardware components and wait several minutes for caching to automatically enable. If it does not automatically enable, please reboot the storage system using the 'Reboot' feature from the 'System Services' menu. I already tried generic memeory muched to the spec, but no lack. Where I can find the good brand name one.
