February 10, 201610 yr I received a Dell PowerEdge 2950 (gen 1 as far as I can tell) a few weeks ago and installed Debian Linux to do my own home media server which worked fine. After deciding to go with unRaid, I bought 3 new hard drives and some ram, which I installed and are recognized in boot up. UnRaid booted up and all seems to be working, but it isn't showing any hard drives to assign as parity disks or otherwise. Any help to have it recognize the hard drives would be much appreciated. Other info: Bios is 2.7 (latest according to Dell website) Perc 5 raid controller (Both the 3 new 2TB and 3 old 500GB drives show up in the virtual drive setup option during boot) I tried changing different bios options I could find, and removing or setting up virtual drives all with no luck.
February 10, 201610 yr You need to likely flash the perc 5, I would have a look at this thread. http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=20602.0
