I have a problem with reinstalling OS on a DL360G5.

The BIOS [F9] do not detect any disc controllers and the HP SmartSetup did not find any compatible controllers.

Inside the server, the two SCSI disks are conncted to a RAID controller using BCM8603 chipset.

How is disc contoller supposed to be setup? I have tried to do a full BIOS reset.

EDIT

At the moment we suspect that the Smart Array controller E200i/412205-001 is broken.

Are there any status LED's that indicate failure or success during start up? At the moment all LED's are off.
