Dell VIRTUAL DISK SCSI Disk Device is the name of an array in the device manager(Under Disk Drives) of my server. While I know that "Dell VIRTUAL DISK SCSI Disk Device" indicates that I am running a hardware array, I would like to know which RAID I am running (ie., RAID 0, RAID 1…etc.)
And is there any possible way that I can check the RAID version without restarting the machine? I am taking over a server without any documentation. Any help would be appreciated :).
FYI the server is a Dell PowerEdge 840.

Download and install Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (DOMSA) on the server.

That will let you see the RAID configuration of the virtual disk from within DOMSA.
