We've seen quite a few of these 350's with SAS HDD's with similar problems.

You need to buy a SAS controller and image the individual drives and rebuild with Winhex or your preferred tools.

You also need to ensure the SAS card you purchase is a Host Bus Adaptor and not a RAID controller, a SAS RAID controller will require you to initialise each disk before installing them into BIOS.
