Can you see the HDD in the CIMC?

Also, if the PCIe card that you are installing is a RAID controller card, firmware on the RAID controller must be verified for compatibility with the current Cisco IMC and BIOS versions that are installed on the server. If not compatible, upgrade or downgrade the RAID controller firmware accordingly using the Host Upgrade Utility (HUU) for your firmware release to bring it to a compatible level.

See the below link for details.

Thanks, looks like I was right and he has to upgrade the software/BIOS version.
