Driver installation

The 12 Gbps SAS HBA controller requires software drivers to operate with the supported operating

systems.

This chapter contains the procedures for installing the drivers for the 12 Gbps SAS HBA controller.

NOTE: The drivers for 12 Gbps SAS HBA controller for VMware ESXi is packaged within the VMware

ESXi ISO image downloaded from Dell support site. For more information, see the VMware

documentation at dell.com/virtualizationsolutions.

Two methods for installing a driver discussed in this chapter are:

•

Installing a driver during operating system installation: Use the method if you are performing a new

installation of the operating system and want to include the drivers.

•

Updating existing drivers: Use the method if the operating system and the 12 Gbps SAS HBA

controller is already installed and you want to update to the latest drivers.

NOTE: It is recommended that you update existing operating system drivers after installation. Native

driver support is available for Windows 2012 R2, Windows 2008 R2, and so on.

Creating the device driver media

Use one of the following two methods to create the device driver media:

Downloading drivers from the Dell Systems Service and Diagnostic Tools Media

Downloading drivers from the Dell support
