No RAID Boot screen on S1200BTL with Intel RAID RS25DB080

[idata]

I do not see any RAID Bios message during boot up on S1200BTL board with a Intel RAID RS25DB080.

There are 2 SSD connected to the Raid RS25DB080 but there is no Bios message,

so i can not set up the Raid system.

The system boots normal, only there is no RAID message.

All other Disk and DVD on the board i can see in the Bios.

Disable Quiet Boot in BIOS, and then you should see the Ctrl-G prompt for RAID BIOS Console.

I try it, but it does not help!

But yet i find out that i get a BIOS message in Slot 3!

But Slot 3 is only x4 i think the RS25DB080 is x8

so still not OK.

I hate to say that but RS25DB080 is not on the http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/sb/CS-032418.htm Tested memory and hardware list... Did you try to update BIOS/Firmware of both the board and the RAID card?

Are you sure ?

This is the Link of the List of the Tested hardware of the RS25DB080

As you can see the S1200BTL is on the List, I am right?

I have new Bios Ver. 38 on the S1200,

i did not check the Bios of the RS25DB080, but i will do it today.

My bad - I only checked the board THOL, forgot about the RAID card THOL...

I have problems to update the RS25DB080,

I am on the EFI Shell and I get this message:

Failed to open file MR53_p3.rom

Failed to Validate The Image File

Exit Code=11

The BIOS File MR53_p3.rom is on the USB Stick,

i load it again from the Intel side, but it is still the same Error Message

The file size of MR53_p3.rom is 8,912,896 bytes. You can try to copy the two files MR53_p3.rom and CmdTool2.efi into same folder and run the following command manually:

CmdTool2.efi -adpfwflash -f MR53_p3.rom -aall
