Studio XPS 8100 No boot device available

I have a Studio XPS 8100 Desktop and when I turn it on it loads to the Dell screen then continues to load but then It comes to a screen where it says

No boot device availabe

wait for Enter key to retry

SATA 1: Installed

SATA 2: Installed

SATA 3: Installed

SATA 4: None

It started doing this for over a year ago and I never had time to attempt to fix it.

Start with the Dell diagnostics - F12 at powerup.  Run an extended test on the hard drives.

What is set as the first boot device (SATA1 or a RAID 0 array)?

No Events found!
