Dell PE R510 BIOS upgraded wiped SATA config
I just installed a BIOS upgrade on a Dell R510 server and after reboot there is no boot devise. the SATA setting were cleared. If I set the SATA controller to ATA mode i get a warning that Data loss will occur.
Will I loose my files if I proceed ?

Hello
Changing the modes is not data destructive, but if you do any writes to the drives in a different mode than what the data was originally written it can overwrite the old data.
Thanks
