Hi Andrew, I believe the Dell has their own branded 5i/R RAID controller
installed. It is an exspansion slot on the motherboard, not intergral to
the motherboard.
Thanks
Frank

Hi all we have a Dell Poweredge SC440 which currently has a factory RAID
controller with two 250gb drives in a RAID 0 configuration. We would
like to eliminate the RAID configuration and boot from a SATA hard disk.
What is involved in this? Is it as simple as removing the RAID
controller and installing a SATA controller and attaching it to a SATA
hard disk? Are there any changes to the BIOS that must be made?
Thanks
Frank
