No, the H755 SAS controller is not compatible with NVMe drives, even if the backplane supports them. You will need to use a dedicated NVMe controller for this configuration. [community thread]
Ensure that you are using the correct controller for NVMe drives, as some configurations may require a specific controller like the Boss controller for booting. Additionally, verify that the RAID settings are properly configured and that the Ubuntu installation supports the NVMe drivers for your specific setup. [community thread]
If your Dell R7615 server is stuck on this message, start by power cycling the server and checking all internal connections for security and damage. If the issue persists, access the iDRAC to review system logs and run diagnostics, and ensure the correct boot device is selected in the BIOS settings. [community thread]
If the firmware is listed as compatible, it should work with the PERC H965i Front RAID controller. However, be aware that installation on unsupported servers may be challenging. [community thread]
The RAID 10 option may not be visible due to configuration settings or limitations in the sales tool. It is advisable to reach out to sales support for potential overrides or further assistance, as the H755 controller does support RAID 10. [community thread]
