cant see drives attached to sata controller

[welchwerks]

Hi i have a supermicro X8DTH-6F with SAS 2108 controller. i boot from 1 of the 8 ports of this controller


on the other sata controller have installed the Intel ICH10R drivers but cant see any drives attached to
ICH10R SATA 3.0Gbps Controller

what did i miss

Which OS are you using? Does it not see any drives in the BIOS?

Ya i guess i should have gave you a little more


as to the questions, no sata drives show in bios or windows only SAS, OS is windows server 2008 R2 running Hyper-V and FX

my setup,

Norco 4224
X8DTH-6F
12GB PNY ECC,Reg,1333
Single Xeon E5620 2.4
400 watt NightJar passive PSU
1-1TB WD 64Mb 6.0Gb OS

1-1TB WD 64Mb 6.0Gb VM storage
4x2Tb Hatachi 64Mb 6.0Gb in raid 10 passed thru to WHS 2011 VM
1-TB Hatachi 6.0Gb for WHS Shares Backup


Thanks, for any input

Try disabling the LSI controller and see if the board picks up the ICH10R drives. My guess is that there is a BIOS setting causing this.

Ya , that is a thought , was just thinking both SAS and Sata should function at the same time, ill hit up supermicrosite and give that a try over the weekend. thanks
