I have confirmed that the moving of the card did not damage it. When I first boot the computer, the BIOS screen comes up, then the screen for the controller, and then it boots from the USB key. As soon as it starts booting from the USB key, it assigns each drive it finds a drive letter in some sort of "pre boot" sequence. At this point it finds 6 drives, and thus assigns 6 drive letters. Those would be the 5 actual hard disks, and the USB stick. After nas4free has booted however, it only sees 4 drives. I have confirmed that the drive it does not see is the drive plugged into the controller. I have also confirmed that it is not the drives fault, because if I plug different drives into the controller, every drive plugged directly into the mobo I can see, and every one plugged into the controller card I cannot. This leads me to believe one of 2 things. Either the OS can't see the PCIe ports, or can't see the controller card. This needs to be fixed.
I am using NAS4free 9.1.0.1, and please, before mentioning it is no longer supported, I quote the wiki, "Upgrading is not a magic bullet to solve a problem you are having with your server. Fix your current problem first, then upgrade later. Do not make matters worse by adding more complications on top of an existing problem." It is on a dell Optiplex 740 Mobo with 4 GB RAM. I do not know what other information may be useful, but please ask if you need any more information.
Here is the information from PCICONF -lv
