ESXI can't recognize the array of traditional PC

hi all：

I experiment with the traditional PC machine, the motherboard is ASUS's Z68 series, the use of the motherboard comes with the RAID function to do the array, ESXI6.0 can not identify, there is a way?

thanks  a  lot

Of course, it can not recognize this "array", because ESXi does NOT support software-/fake-/bios-/pseudo-raid (that's the "raid" you have on your motherboard). Only true hardware raid controllers...

Hi

Check proper raid firmware & driver installed, is this come with raid card. Also check if this recognize with another OS Version.

Thank you very much! I would like to ask, from this website, http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/search.php, how do I check the hardware RAID card with ESXI compatibility.
