Yes, I know AHCI is needed, and I got 4 (5) unassigned drives (as the 
Smart Storage Administrator on HP/Ilo4 tells), no raid defined. TrueNAS 
on the running system gives:

root at truenas[~]# zpool status
   pool: Daten
  state: ONLINE
status: Some supported features are not enabled on the pool. The pool can
         still be used, but some features are unavailable.
action: Enable all features using 'zpool upgrade'. Once this is done,
         the pool may no longer be accessible by software that does not 
support
         the features. See zpool-features(5) for details.

I'll get a second Gen8 next week, and will have a closer look at the 
installation.

Best Regards

Klaus
