I have a PE2950 that wont recognize Solid State Hard Drives. I believe it has the 5i SAS controller and normal SAS and SATA drives work fine. The Solid State Drives are seen by the SAS controller but they are not able to be put online. This is causing them not to be seen in the OS.

 

I have a mix of Samsung 16,32,64 GB drives and Imation 16,32 Gb Drives.

 

None of them have been able to be put online while all of them can be seen by the SAS controller. The Model and even the capacity are seen, but the status is just blank and all options are greyed out when attempting to do anything with these drives.

 

Bios and Firmware are all up to date from the Dell Site.
