Poweredge R710 Raid 5 Controller

I have recently purchased a Dell Poweredge R710 server:

Dell Poweredge R710 E5502,1.86GHz 4MB Cache, no Add Proc, 2GB (2x1GB) DDR3 Udimms, 16xDVDR, Riser with 2 PCIe, SAS 6iR Int Raid Controller, R710 Rack Bezel, C1 no Raid for SAS 6/iR Controller, High Output Power Supply 870W, 4 x 750GB Near SATA Line SAS 3.5" 7.2K, 2 x 160GB SATA 3.5" 7.2K Dual Embedded Broadcom NetXtreme II 5709 GB Eth NIC iDRAC

 

The raid controller card fitted is the SAS 6/IR which only supports Raid 0 and 1.

What I need is a Raid 5 controller. Which card from Dell (need to purchase the card from Dell) do I need to purchase to provide the Raid 5 function for me?

 

Thanks in advance - Neil

If I go to www.dell.com and go through the site to build an R710, under the raid controller options it shows the PERC6i as an option.
