The Intel instructions explain how to start a Windows installation and, depending on the version of Windows, how to introduce the replacement driver at the beginning (either by pressing F6 or selecting “Load Driver”) of the operating system setup procedure.
Other possible workarounds to this issue (dependent on notebook hardware configurations):
Toggle AHCI/ATA/Compatibility mode before installation of Windows 7 by selecting the option in system BIOS. This causes the default Microsoft driver to load which supports Advanced Format.
Toggle the RAID mode in System BIOS while installing the Operating system. RAID Mode can be enabled after the installation of the Intel Driver.
Copy the Installation CD to a bootable USB drive – using Microsoft’s CD/USB tool or literature widely available on the web. Change the file in the installation source with the Intel iRST driver ver 9.6.
WIN7 has MSM for older drives. RST 9.6.X for advanced format Drives.
Intel RST replaces Intel Matrix Storage Manager. HOWEVER you cannot update to your hearts content from 7 to 8 to 9 to 10 to 11 to 12 to 13 etc. As the drivers and chipsets get newer the older ICH5 6 7 8 9 etc are dropped from support.
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2682&CC_0104= "Intel(R) ESB2 SATA RAID" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C3&CC_0104= "Intel(R) ICH7R/DH SATA RAID" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C6&CC_0104= "Intel(R) ICH7MDH SATA RAID Controller" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2822&CC_0104= "Intel(R) ICH8R/ICH9R/ICH10R/DO/5/3400 SATA RAID" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_282A&CC_0104= "Intel(R) ICH8M-E/ICH9M-E/5 Series SATA RAID"
10.1.XXXX is the transition version to larger than 2TB Volumes.
Windows 10 will only work with RST on supported chipsets meaning you have to install 9.6 or 10.1 etc after the upgrade to get the RST functionality back.
Newer versions of the drivers STOP SUPPORTING older versions of the chipset.
I think when you ran Wipedrive that it may have caused the BIOS to no longer register / read the hard drive. Have you tried going into your BIOS and seeing whether the drive is listed? If not, try resetting the BIOS back to factory defaults and seeing it then reads the drive.
Once the BIOS is reading the drive correctly again (it should list manufacturer and model info) you should be able to use the USB drive without a problem.
Let me know if that works. If you have more questions please right click my Dell Todd username and send me a private message with the Dell Service Tag of your Latitude E5530. Please keep all discussions and troubleshooting here in this public thread so that others, with the same questions, can see what is discussed.

WipeDrive does not damage drives in this way. White canyon software would be out of business if this were the case.
The Issue is Windows 7 Advanced Format (4K sectors) drives require F6 drivers.
Bios should register sata Drive but to format AHCI requires F6 drivers.
You either set SATA OPERATION TO ATA and format and install OR You provide the F6 Drivers via diskette during initial Install.

RST RAID does not support larger than 2TB volume.
Windows 10 will only work with RST on supported chipsets meaning you have to install 9.6 or 10.1 etc after the upgrade to get the RST functionality back.
