Greetings.

There are multiple options for storage controllers on the C220M4.

There is an onboard sata controller which requires sata only drives.  This ships with all C220M4 servers.

There are some other options for the 12Gb Modular SAS controllers in Raid and HBA versions.

If you have your CIMC for the server configured, there is a storage tab, that will list the controllers.

If nothing is listed, then you just have the onboard sata controller.
