I assume this is from the firmware? I don't understand why it would be
telling you it's offline though. "Splash screen"? What does it mean by
"offline"? I've never seen something like that.
Sorry, this was not clear.
On the screen after the "Dell", the T5810 lists the available hardware. The first entry is of the SSD which is RAID0 and "Offline" (the latter in red).
It's a hardware RAID? You have two SSDs in the computer? Have you gone
into setup to see what the RAID configuration says?
Yes, it is a hardware RAID. The BIOS is very confusing but it does not say anything in there (anymore). My understanding is (and I am green here) is that the SSD drive is 2 x 60GB and stripped to 120GB. I don't know what this means (but yes, one drive is a mirror of the other, and I only had access to 60GB when I installed last week).
I would recommend disabling the hardware RAID if possible and use the
Linux software RAID instead. RAID0 is combining the two drives for more
space (and speed) not redundancy and you should have 120GB. RAID1 is
mirroring which would mean 60GB.
