Driver for "DP BACKPLANE SCSI Enclosure Device" ?

Hello All,

I just got a brand new PE1950 with an internal SAS 6/iR. We also purchased a PERC 6/E card that is attached
to an MD1000 storage array with a couple of SATA disks in it so far. Installed Windows 2003 Server R2 x64 on
the server. Went into the PERC BIOS (via Ctrl-R) and set up the 2 SATA drives in the MD1000 in a RAID 1 array.

The issue is that in Device Manager, there is one item labeled "DP BACKPLANE SCSI Enclosure Device" that is in
error without a proper driver. Now I'm guessing this is the disk enclosure within the MD1000, as I also can't format
the virtual disk that the Disk Management tool sees. At least, it [the Disk Management tool] does see it.

I've been through the Drivers and Downloads section of support.dell.com for both the PE1950 and MD1000 but
don't see anything that would fit this bill. I've also ensured that the drivers for both the SAS 6/iR and PERC 6/E
cards are up to date. Also, the Dell Build and Update Utility CD doesn't have any drivers that look appropriate.

Any ideas?
Thanks!
