I was using Dell PowerEdge R730 as a PACS server with Windows Server 2012 R2 operating system, now I'm facing a "No boot device available" error because of the following issues which I perform:

  1. Operating System with Raid 5 installed and operated for years as PACS server.
  2. In the same server hard drive with raid 5 removed and new hard drive installed in the server for the installation of window server operating system.
  3. When I return back those previous hard drives with their respective position, the server does not boot but shows the following error, "No boot device available".

Please assist me with the issue.
