B110i HP Onboard SmartArray Controller Support

Went to VMware's HCL to see if B110i RAID Controller (onboard) was supported for DL160 G6. Doesn't look like it is. Anyone else encounter this & able to get it to work? ESXi is installed on USB & no PSOD or anything, just not able to "RAID1" my 2 SAS disks.

Thanks.

Ok, as I thought. CRAP! I knew it! :P ha Was crunched for time back in the Fall and let a certain reseller procure me up a server build. They sent PCI controllers but saw there was an onboard and didn't see the need for the 'external' ones so I sent them back. Turns out they are needed after all. Problem is, the 'server' folks who procured this build should've made me aware of that (or, I should've dug a little deeper to find out the RAID used by this model server). Oh well...not a biggee...need to procure those Cards back now. :/ meh

Thanks Andy...
