Intel Perc 3 Di Raid Controller Driver Windows Server 2008

Intel perc 3 di raid controller driver windows server 2008 free

I'm a server novice and have been given a Dell 2850 (PERC 4e/Di). It has 3 blank HDs that I think are configured as RAID 5. I am trying to install W2K8 R2 SP1 on it. It doesn't have a DVD reader so I created an install USB. This works fine until it's time to copy files to the HD. It can't see a HD. There is an option to browse for drivers at this stage. Any idea what drivers I need and where to download them?

Oct 29, 2008 - 2008 isn't supported on the 4400 server model. When installing W2k8, if the Windows can't find the driver there isn't a work around for it at this time unless you get a new raid controller card; a different card like a perc 4.

I downloaded this driver RAID_DRVR_WIN_R227150.EXE but this failed with invalid signature. Thanks to dyasny for the link to LSI-LOGIC_MULTI-DEVICE_A00_R227150.exe.

The file is called

LSI-LOGIC_MULTI-DEVICE_A00_R227150.exe

BTW, with a DRAC, you can attach a DVD ISO image remotely and install from it, but that's irrelevant to the issue at hand

You can get drivers from Dell directly. If it's not supported, you'll have to dig around and try and find similar drivers from elsewhere.

Didn't they do something in R2 with SCSI drivers?

Have a Google around, I think it's a known thing
