We've recently had to migrate from the Dell 1950 to the Dell R610 since Dell isn't making/selling the 19xx series any longer. The operating system we use is Windows XP Embedded, and to get a solid build it's necessary to have a Windows XP install on the hardware you're targeting. However, I cannot get the Windows XP install disc to recognize the hard drives on the R610 (which uses PERC 6/i integrated).
Things I've tried:
+ PERC5/6 driver disk we used to get Windows XP on the 1950's.
+ Multi-device PERC driver from dell for servers (percsas rather than megasas)
+ LSI driver for MegaRAID 8048 (despite saying it's for XP on the website it shows up as a Vista driver on the F6 select screen)
+ The actual controller cards on the 1950 and R610 appear to be identical - I swapped them, but it didn't affect anything.
+ Install Server 2003, scan that configuration and then manually re-write the inf files for the XP versions - this blue-screened the XP Embedded install (although it did get to the loading Windows screen!).
+ Formatted the hard disk (came completely un-formatted)
+ Installed XP on the drive from a 1950 and swapped the HD into the R610 (obviously didn't work)
If I can get the XP installation disc to recognize the drive, I'm good to go from there but I have been unable to locate a driver that works. Dell doesn't support XP on the R610, so they don't have a driver for download and LSI's latest driver comes up as Vista despite being from their Windows XP link - does anyone know of a driver that will work to get XP running on an R610?

Dell Perc 6 I Driver Windows Server 2012 R2
With the Windows Server 2016 release, the Dell EMC systems are shipped with a multilingual operating system interface that provides a list of supported languages. When you power on your system for the first time or reinstall the operating system using a Dell EMC provided. Mar 22, 2013 This package provides the Dell PERC 6/i Integrated Firmware Update and is supported on the Compellent, Enterprise Servers and Powervault models that are running the following Windows Operating System: NA. According to Dell's own website, the Windows Server 2012 media driver 'inbox' does not contain drivers for the Perc S100 controller that is in a Dell PowerEdge T110 II server we'd like to evaluate with Server 2012. I have found drivers only for Server 2008 R2, which is what the server is currently running. Is it possible to upgrade this server?
Dell Perc 6/i Driver Windows 2008 R2
Reinstall Windows 10 (restore a clone of a Windows 10 disk image with clonezilla) The issue we're facing is that Windows 10 doesn't support the Raid Controller PERC H310. So basically, when restoring the Windows image, we can't boot on it because Windows doesn't find the drives. Windows driver installation Before you install the Windows driver for PERC 9, you must first create a device driver media. Read the Microsoft Getting Started document that shipped with your operating system. Ensure that your system has the latest BIOS, firmware, and driver updates. The impossible game full free. Server 2008 R2 and later have the PERC drivers built into the OS files, so you shouldn't need to load them separately (that is why there are no 2008 R2 drivers listed on the download page - the only PERC 6 files are firmware updates). Array must be configured and initialized. You likely must be.
