Upgrade R510 from PERC 6i to H700

Have an 8 bay R510 with a PERC 6i Raid card in it. Bought an H700 to allow it to use drives larger than 2TB, but after plugging the card into the riser, and connecting the cables, it doesn't see any physical drives.

The only thing I notice is that the 6i had an extra little 4pin cable which ran from the riser to the 6i. The H700 doesn't have anywhere to plug this cable.

Anyone managed to do this upgrade successfully?

@DELL-Young E​ that video is for an R610, I have an R510. The other link talks about importing foreign config, but this server is not even seeing any physical drives connected to the H700
