Hard drives connected through SAS expander can’t be detected in
legacy mode
Problem If hard drives are connected through expander to SCU ports and configured
under RSTe mode, the hard drives can’t be detected by system in legacy mode
(default BIOS setting).
Implication Users can’t use the hard drives connected through expander as boot device to
install OS. But users can install OS to other hard drives which are not
connected through expander and load RSTe driver to make the hard drives
connected through expander visible to OS. Or users can change Boot Options ->
EFI Optimized Boot to “Enabled” in BIOS Setup so that hard drives connected
through expander can be detected by the system.
Status This issue was fixed in BIOS 01.08.0003 and later release.
