Good evening, all!

I attempting my third build of a FreeNAS server but this time I wanted to use some enterprise grade equipment. I am working with:
Dell R710 (8 cores @ 2.9 Ghz, 48 GB ECC)
H800 RAID card connecting to...
MD1000 with AMP01-SIM controller
6x 2TB WD Reds

I successfully installed FreeNAS v10 Build 2 tonight, but none of my disks are showing up when I go to create a storage volume. The drives all appear just fine in the RAID controller config in the BIOS. I tried them without any hardware RAID at all, all RAID 0, and all RAID 6 ( I know - dont use hardware RAID - I was just trying to see if I could get anything out of it). However, no matter what I try, no disks are showing up in FreeNAS. I checked the compatibility lists and could even find other forums where people say a similar setup is working fine for them, so at this point, I am just looking for tips on where to troubleshoot next. Thank you in advance

ditch the H800 and use a HBA. What is the new hot card on the forums these days? The H200 flashed to IT mode?
