ESXi 5 on Supermicro X8DTU-6+ health status shows no array controller

Even though I was able to add the datastore from the raid in Health Status I don't see any disks or raid health.  How can I fix this please?

According to my invoice the type of the server is 1026t-6fr+ but the system sees it as a different type?

What type of storage controller does the system have?  If it is just the ICH10R then you won't get health data for it.   The storage controller requires a CIM provider to be developed for ESXi that can get hardware health data for ESXi.  ESXi included built in CIM providers for mainstream RAID controllers and manufacturers can provided CIM providers as well.  But you won't see one (unless it is community developed) for a controller like the ICH10R.
