HP DL360 Gen9 Server with SSD

[gnkdata]

I am trying to make the raid configuration of my new server but i can not see any smart array in it. 

All my drivers are SSD. Does SSD harddisk have a special configuration.

It says it has Wellsburg 6-port SATA controller (AHCI Mode)

Sounds like you have a system that uses the B140i Dynamic Smart Array controller. Either you have disable the RAID function in RBSU and set the contoller to SATA AHCI mode, or you are using Legacy Boot Mode. The B140i functionality is not supported in Legacy mode. Are your SSD drives SAS or SATA? The embedded controller only supprots SATA

Thanks for the reply.

SSD drivers are SATA.

Should i change the legacy mode to UEFI mode?

If you want to use the RAID function of the B140i chipset SATA controller, you need to be in UEFI mode and download the required driver. The controller is software RAID, as the RAID functionality is in the driver itself.

Great this worked for me.

Thanks a lot for the help.
