What problem are you having exactly with setting it up?

You should just be able to plug one of those cards in and they start working with no special action required.  I have 2 of them in my unRAID server and no special action was required.

 

What problem are you seeing?  Have you go the correct type of SAS->SATA cables for the card as if you get the wrong type no drives will be recognised.
