First; you may want to ask in the desktop section of this board instead of the Dell|EMC SAN storage section.
Second; A PCI Serial ATA (SATA) card cannot talk to a SCSI hard drive, so that would be why you can't see the drive.
However, if you have a (serial) ATA drive attached to the serial ATA controller, you may need to use the driver (on a floppy disk) that came with the SATA controller card.
