Drive paths in UEFI Devices in the server are represented by device paths in the UEFI shell. Each internal SAS drive could be configured either as: • RAID mode • HBA (raw) mode NOTE: A SAS drive in RAID mode is identified by "Scsi" in the device path A SAS drive in HBA mode is identified by "SAS" in the device path. NOTE: Unlike parallel SCSI, you cannot correlate UEFI device paths to internal SAS disk drive bays with SAS regardless of RAID/HBA mode. The UEFI device paths currently do not contain any information that could be used to determine the physical location of the drives.

Drive paths in UEFI
Devices in the server are represented by device paths in the UEFI shell. Each internal SAS drive
could be configured either as:
RAID mode
HBA (raw) mode
NOTE:
A SAS drive in RAID mode is identified by "Scsi" in the device path A SAS drive in HBA
mode is identified by “SAS” in the device path.
NOTE:
Unlike parallel SCSI, you cannot correlate UEFI device paths to internal SAS disk drive
bays with SAS regardless of RAID/HBA mode. The UEFI device paths currently do not contain any
information that could be used to determine the physical location of the drives.
