So,

if you say '...not getting detected...' it means that you are expecting 
more, which leads to problem with controller...
At the PROM prompt type: probe-scsi-all
That command should show to you *all* disks and *all* controllers (I 
hope you know how much do you have).
E450 can come with 4 or 8 port SCSI controllers (in base configuration 
with 1 controller/4 port)....
