Hardware

Hi, I have searched the forums and have found similar issues, but haven't seen an answer to this problem. Hopefully someone can help.

I purchased a used Sun Fire V100 and it will not boot from the CD-ROM. At first, I thought the drive might be defective, so the seller (an eBay seller) sent me another drive and the system doesn't see it either. I got Solaris installed by creating a Solaris x86 VM in vmware and creating an install server, but I would still like to get the drive working if at all possible. I have reseated all power and data cables. The drive access light will come on if I do a reset from the ok prompt but the drive isn't seen. Here is the result of probe-ide:

ok probe-ide
Device 0 ( Primary Master )
ATA Model: ST340016A

Device 1 ( Primary Slave )
Not Present

Device 2 ( Secondary Master )

Device 3 ( Secondary Slave )

and here is the result of devalias:

I can boot from the hard drive just fine but cannot access the CD-ROM drive from either the ok prompt or from Solaris (it doesn't even create a /cdrom directory in Solaris). Does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be? Thanks!
