Western Digital Hard Drives "not found"

I have replaced some 500G drives with Western Digital 1TB drives. The firmware is up to date. Specs are as follows:

FAS2020

Ontap 7.3.3

sysconfig -v shows the following for the drives:

ID         Vendor        Model                             FW      Size

00.1     WDC         WD1002FAEX-00ZSS        1D05    847.5GB (Found in scan)

It found them in the scan, but I can't unfail them, I can't do anything to them. Is there something simple I'm missing? It says the firmware is up to date on the drives. It also gives me an Error 19, the disk is not ready. Are Western Digital drives not compatible?

These are not disks from NetApp and therefore not recognized by Ontap as valid disks.
