Q: Why can’t I see any controllers using RAIDCFG?
A: Make sure that the RAID controller(s) can be seen in the BIOS during
POST. If the BIOS does not detect the controller, then RAIDCFG does not
detect it. Also make sure that the controller is set to RAID mode and not any
other mode in the controller BIOS.
