I have a PERC RAID Controller (PCI-X) installed in a Dell Precision 670 workstation running Windows Server 2003. The controller is hooked up to a PowerVault 221S. The system sees the card as a "RAID Controller" (unknown). I have tried all known drivers available on the Precision 670 support downloads, and none work. I also vaguely recall the card to be a PERC 6/i based on a previous setup, but I have tried those drivers as well with no luck. How can I identify this card?
** EDIT **
I took a bad pic of what the card displays on system boot:

Based on the pic, it's definitely a PERC card (PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller). What's in question is which PERC card it is. Reboot the system and press CTRL+M when you see this message to go into the controller configuration utility, which may identify the card for you. Short of that, and barring any other information displayed during POST, you may need to remove the card in order to identify it visually.
