ml350 and ata drives

[tony doherty_2]

I have an ML350 which I am trying to set up as a backup server for an existing machine which has an ide drive . I want to restore the image using Arconis backup , but I cannot get the ml350 to recognise an IDE drive . It is a maxtor 40g (non-hp part)
Does the ml350 support ide hard drives (assuming the on-board scsi/raid contrllers are disabled ) or is there a limit on the drive sizes ?

This is an ml350g2 with s/start 6.x

The IDE controllers provided do not support IDE Hard Drives. This support needs to be part of the BIOS and is purposely left out. Your only options are a PCI IDE controller, other than a inexpensive one, like an Adaptec. Or use SCSI drives
