Cannot see local storage to create a datastore ESXI 6.7

[Tbaylis5]

I have recently purchased an hp Proliant ML110 Gen 10 and installed Esxi 6.7 hp custom image. All installed okay however when logging into the web client I am unable to see any storage to create a datastore, its says no devices with free space. I have 2 x HPE midline 4tb sata model number 801888-b21. When booting the server I am able to see the storage and create an array but can not see the drives in vsphere web app.

I downloaded the smart array drivers and used vmware Power Cli to create a custom ISO image which installed fine but still I could not see the storage when trying to create a data store

Can anybody suggest why I am unable to see the storage and create a datastore please.

If you have the software RAID model, it is not supported for ESXi (see page 6 of the Quick Specs PDF).

Software RAID is not supported in any version of ESXi.

For hardware RAID controller, you have to look at the VMware HCL if it has supported VIB.
