ML350T04 Raid array problem

Problem is that i cannot access orca setup utility because when I press F8 I have only 3 options 1. tape disaster recovery 2. multi initiator configuration and 3. exit
The only logical option (no.2) gives no result and is only for changing SCSI controler ID, option for reseting SCSI after IC (whatever that means) and Domain Validation (which I also dont understand). HDD's are 2x HP 72Gb U320 Hot Swapable 10K on ID's 1 and 2 and the controler is on ID 0. Disks are properly detected and in partition magic are displayed as two disks of 72 gigs. SmartStart's ACU says that there are no supported controlers present and to use ORCA to define array. I want to create a simple Mirror array but no luck. User manual says that the ORCA should display GUI with options for array setup but there is no GUI or the option to enter one.
Please help ASAP

Re: ML350T04 Raid array problem

It's likely that your model doesn't have an array controller. See http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12009_div/12009_div.html#Models and of the 11 models listed, only 4 have SmartArray 641 controllers as part of the configuration. Check the slots; if there isn't a controller in a slot, your model doesn't have an array controller.
