You will need to contact the megaraid team to obtain the proper drivers. This controller is not support by mptsas driver, as the bios/firmware that ships with this 0x59 controller will corrupt you disk with metadata as it will by default its creating a raid volume. The mptsas driver works with the ids you noted before, 50, 54, 56, 58, and 62.
