Unable to configure RAID for H220 SAS 2 Controller in a HP Proliant ML310e G8v2

herzogp — Sun, 14 Jun 2015 03:58:20 GMT

I am setting a brand new HP Proliant ML310e G8v2 server with an additional HP H220 SAS 2 PCI Controller that has 4 HP 450Gb 6G (652615-B21) 6G SAS 15K rpm LFF hard drives.

The BIOS is configured for SATA AHCI Support in "System Options/SATA Contr Option/Embedded SATA Config". The Boot Controller Order is configured to boot first from the H220 Host Bus Adapter and the second from the Embedded Intell SATA Controller.

The H220 Host Bus Adapter MPT Firmware Rev is 13.10.53.00-IT, NVDATA Ver OD.43.00.12

The BIOS Boot-up sequence displays the HP H220 adapter and the 4 HDs attached.

There appears not to be any option in the LSI SAS Configuration Utility or HP Intelligent Provisioning tool

to configure the HDs for RAID.

How can I configure RAID on this adapter?

Hi.

The HP H220 controller is only a Host bus adapter and doesn't support any type of hardware RAID.
