Hello, I am using a SuperMicro X7DCA-3 motherboard:
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon1333/5100/X7DCA-3.cfm

I have 4 desktop SATA hard drives attached through the LSI 1068E SAS port, and 
one hard drive connected through the normal SATA port.

OpenSolaris detects the SATA hard drive however I can't seem to get the SAS 
hard drives to get noticed.  I see no option in the BIOS to do anything with 
the SAS controller, however there is a RAID software screen that I can look at 
when it boots up (by hitting ctrl-M).  I am thinking that its possible that 
this RAID software is disabling the hard drives until it gets set up.  Clearly 
however I don't want to set up any manner of RAID through this, but I dont see 
any option to enable the drives and turn RAID off.

Has anyone used this LSI 1068E SAS controller before?  And if so what steps did 
you take to make it function?
