Tibrawn,

You would need to download and boot to the Build and Update Utility (BUU) located here - http://dell.to/1eLVf1Y

From there you will be able to select the raid 5 and configure it through the BUU tool.

This link is to the Perc 4e/di manual, which would allow you to configure the array manually - ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/Common/dell-perc-4-di_User%27s%20Guide11_en-us.pdf

Let me know if this helps.
