FreeNAS-9.2.1-RELEASE-x64 not detecting Disks

[Zohaib]

Hi all,

I'm new to the FreeNAS world. I recently installed FreeNAS-9.2.1-RELEASE-x64 on my Dell PowerEdge r720XD and everything installed fine. I got into the web interface to configure but ran into a problem, I have 8 hard drives in my system but FreeNAS is not detecting any of them. All disks are connected to PERC H710p Integrated RAID Controller, 1GB NV Cache, not BIOS RAID is configured yet.

Sounds like your controller isn't compatible with FreeNAS. Not the first Perc to not be compatible, and surely not the last. Go get an M1015 and reflash it as that IS compatible with FreeNAS and is inexpensive for 8 SAS 6Gbps ports.
