Won't see one of the HDDs in Bios? do you have the latest bios installed?

It sees the HDDs no issue. I want to install an ssd I have as a 5th drive in either the PCI-E card, or the esata port in the back of the system to run the OS off and have the 4 HDD just for storage with no OS on them.

So, after messing around to get this system working the way I want, it seems that the OS installer will see the drive and install the OS on it, but it will not boot from this drive. I do have the latest bios installed. I am not sure if there are any other settings in the bios I am missing.

Anyone got any ideas for this before I scrap this project and move to a different solution and use this system for something else?
