Hi,

I understand from the description, it would be a Disk system 2300 (Stotageworks/surestore) SCSI connected disksystem.

It could be connected with SMART Array card(in rx4640).

Please power of both disk system and server.
Power on the Disk system
Wait for some time for disk system intialization , then Power on the server.
SA controller will report the POST results.
Once you quit the POST prompt, the SA controller firmware prompts for ORCA (Option ROM Configuration for Arrays Utility). Press <F8> to run the Option ROM Configuration for Arrays Utility or Press <ESC> to skip configuration and continue.
Continue with ORCA

HTH
