In the Boot Settings, I got the Integrated RAID Controller 1: PERC H310 in first place.
In Integrated Devices, Integrated RAID Controller is Enabled.
Backplane Inventory: SAS/SATA, Upstream Firmware Version 1.00
The Controller properties option shows 2 physical disks and non virtual disks. The H310 firmware version is 20.13.1-0002 (built in Sep 29 2014). Both disks appear like: Physical Disk SATA, 931GB, Non-RAID.
Power Savings of the disks is disabled, and Patrol Read Mode is Auto.

Hello onavarro36,
If you do not want to use the hardware RAID configuration you would need to convert the drives to Non-RAID.
H310 user guide:
https://dell.to/2X7PMC6
Some sections to review:
Page 43: Converting Physical Disk To Non-RAID For PERC H310
Page 55: Controller Management Options
Select Bootable Device
NOTE: For PERC H310 the option may be a Virtual Disk or Non-RAID drive.
Page 59: Enabling Boot Support For A BIOS-Enabled Controller
Please let me know if this helps.

Hello Oscar,
Thank you for the update.
What is the CentOS version you are using?
Is this R320 hardware on it's compatibility list?
Do you plan to boot BIOS mode or UEFI mode?
I would note CentOS is an unsupported OS, but I will see if I can find anything.
Supported OS: https://dell.to/3fast0N
In addition I see the H310, BIOS and DRAC firmware could use updates.

I'm using CentOS 8
According to this, at least CentOS 7 would be compatible - as RHEL 7 is:

I tried both using BIOS and UEFI booting.
I'll try updating, and maybe installing CentOS 7.
Thank you.
