Thanks, yes the RAID is configured before de OS Deployment, but I am still getting the same message, says that can be a hard drive or DVD drive missing driver.
Hi TheFlash1932, I think the server already comes with the S110 deactivated by default, when I go to the BIOS settings and go to SATA settings, it is in AHCI mode, not RAID mode, when i select RAID mode then the S110 turns on, but I left it on AHCI mode.
Seems like nobody has this problem hehe, finally I just installed Windows Server 2008 R2 with no problems, and checked the Windows Server 2012 Media and has no problems.
9/10 times this is because of bad media. The rest of the time is because of actual missing drivers (S110 in this case is the only driver that should not be native to 2012 media) ... turning it off should eliminate that possibility.
You could try the chipset drivers, in case it is the actual AHCI controller it doesn't have (or you could change it to ATA/legacy mode, if that exists for this machine).

Try this driver:
http://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER02530706M/14/SAS-RAID_Driver_5382X_WN64_6.803.21.0_A02_ZPE.exe
Download and run it to extract the files before use, then put it on a flash drive, etc.
Make sure RAID is configured, either in CTRL-R before the process, or using the LCC wizard during the install.

Boot to BIOS Setup and disable the onboard SATA RAID (S110).

You could try installing via USB ...
