I have a PowerVault 220s with 14 Drives and a PowerEdge 2500 with 6 Drives with a Perc /3 DI. I have connected the PowerVault to the External SCSI port on the 2500. which i believe to be Channel 1. The 6 drives in the 2500 are running on Channel 0. My question is when i go to the PERC BIOS to setup the containers for the PowerVault i dont see Channel 1. But when i boot the system up i see the powervault and all the drives and can set them up under Windows for RAID 5, but i would rather set them up under the Perc card.

Perc 3/DI is running Ver. 2.8-0

 

Thanks for any help
