dELL r710 configuration

I have an old dell r710 server with an embedded hardware RAID controller. This is to be a test box, it only has 1 1TB drive in it. I am unable to install an OS on this machine. I suspect that I must create a RAID which means I need another hard drive. Is this true? Also when I boot to system manager it states that no virtual disks have been configured

Once I installed a hardware raid perc 6/i it has basically stated that I need at least 2 hard drives
