Need the drivers that will recognize a SATA drive RAID 1 array on a Dell PowerEdge 800 Server
I need the drivers that will recognize a SATA drive RAID 1 array on a Dell PowerEdge 800 Server.
The two Serial ATA drives are recognized by the SCSI BIOS and are configured in a RAID 1 (mirrored array).
However, when I boot off of the Windows Server 2003 R2 installation CD, the drives aren't recognized by Server 2003.
I receive a message saying that setup didn't find any hard drives attached to your computer.
At the very beginning of when Server 203 boots, I am given the option to press F6 to load third party drivers.
The array says that it is a Cerc SATA 2S Controller. SiL 3132 SATA Link. BIOS version 7.4.05. (c) 1997-2006 Silicon Image, Inc.
When I boot into the RAID configuration utility, it says that it is Adaptec.
Where can I download the necessary drivers so that the SATA drive RAID 1 array on the Dell PowerEdge 800 Server will be recognized?
I have already looked on Dell's Drivers &Â Downloads webpage for the Dell Power Edge 800 Server, but have been unable to determine exactly which driver I need to download. I have attached a screenshot of this webpage.
If the drivers aren't available on Dell's Drivers webpage, then where else can I find them?
Please post the exact URL address as to where I can download these drivers from.
