Embedded SATA RAID Controller

This server includes an embedded MegaRAID controller that supports RAID levels 0 and 1. The primary
controller can control up to eight front-loading SATA-only drives. The secondary controller can control two
internal M.2 SATA drives.
Note
The VMware ESX/ESXi operating system is not supported with the embedded SATA MegaRAID controller
in SW RAID mode. You can use VMWare in AHCI mode.
Note
The Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V hypervisor is supported for use with the embedded MegaRAID
controller in SW RAID mode, but all other hyperviors are not supported. All Hypervisors are supported in
AHCI mode.
