Consult the documentation for the specific RAID controller. You will
have to create RAID arrays using it's BIOS. Following site holds PDFs

http://support.dell.com/support/systemsinfo/documentation.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&~cat=7&~subcat=24

Caution: be careful to not erase data on the first drive when trying to
create a RAID1 array of both disks connected! Read the documentation
carefully.
