All the driver files are here: www.dell.com/.../04 Try re-seating the sata and power connectors on the disks, if there's no change you could try moving the sata connectors to the cerc card and see if the disks appear there. Try re-setting the nvram using the jumper on the system board. there should be a sticker on the inside of the side cover that describes this.
Hello All, I got a 800 server with 4XSATA HDD. The system had been cleaned with burn software previously. I get an error at the bootup. There is no installed OS yet. I have to fix this error first. The Bios does not see the 4 SATA HDD. It says for all 3 SATA Ports 0 -3  hard disk drive is not found. In the BIOS the SATA Controller is set to ATA MODE. The cables are connected properly between the board and the hdd. All the LEDs are Green. I don't have any dell installation disks. What steps do I need to take to fix this problem? How do I update the BIOS with HDD driver if that is the issue? Any advice will be greatly appreciated? JA
