What's your RAID card - it may not be supported in C8.

Edit: Run this on C7 and post the output here:
lspci -nn | grep -i raid

ELRepo have a kmod-aacraid for el8 that add back the missing support for this controller. Google for elrepo and also for 'driver update disk' as you'll need to supply one to the installer to get it to work.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
