Just asking, but have you tried booting install media (Solaris 9 or 10) and attempting to install on the new drive?

Is your Solaris 9 install your own, or a pre-existing install from previous owner? I ask because I wonder if a previous owner might have brute-forced something to make the previous drives work that *somehow* breaks the ability to use different drives.
