Server Not Seeing Raid 10 Array

$

Hi all,

 

I Just got a new Server Viridian PC OfficeServ Pro 6HC with Windows Server 2012 essentials installed on a RAID 1 OS drive and no Storage drives.   It has a quad core Xeon processor and 16 BG of RAM.

 

 

I added 4 X 3TB WD Red Drives that I want to set up as RAID 10.

 

  1. I went into setup and changed the SATA inputs from AHCI to RAID
  2. I left the Type to INTEL (Could have chosen LSI MegaRAID)
  3. Made sure all the sata ports were enabled ( could see all 4 Drives next to the coordinating Sata Inputs)
  4. then saved and exited from setup. 
  5. Then when the RAID setup came up, I was able to press "<Control> - I" to get into the RAID setup
  6. Selected RAID 10
  7. Selected all 4 Drives
  8. Created new RAID volume
  9. Booted in WS2012E.

 

Unfortunately, WS2012E does not see the RAID array in the dashboard.

  • I checked alerts to see if it was telling me I needed to format the volume, but there aren't any alerts - at least not for that
  • I went into Computer Management and went to storage, but I can only see the OS drive
  • Tried rebooting and checking the same things, but still no RAID array available

 

Is there another step I need to do to make the RAID array available? 

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Bryan
