    Home server HDD issue, need advice

    I played with a 2TB work around many years ago. It works fine until you need to reinstall WHS. On a server reinstall WHS can locate and install existing storage drives, the version of the work around I tried broke this ability. It might be time to leave WHS v1 behind if you want to use...

    Home server HDD issue, need advice

    Is this WHS v1? If so, you are limited to 2TB drives. This limit has had me playing with windows server 2012 R2 The 4TB NAS drives work well

    host bus adapter recommendations

    Looking to buy a host bus adapter. narrowed down to the LSI 9300-8i or the Adaptec 7805H the LSI is the front runner at the moment LSI 9300-8i Adaptec 7805H I don't "need" miniSAS or 12Gb/s, but miniSAS seems neater and "future proof". Any recommendations? LSI or Adaptec? Thanks.

    3 or 4tb Hard Drive WHSV1

    I believe you could use a >2TB drive in WHSv1, but the drive will be limited in available capacity. that said, I have a five drive raid 6 array in my WHSv1 box. however, the array is not added to WHS this is the console just after adding the raid 6 array to the box

    3 or 4tb Hard Drive WHSV1

    Whs v1 won't natively recognise anything greater than 2TB. There was a work around discussed a long time ago. There was a limitation of the work around, but damned if i can remember it.

    Seagate finally offering a down to earth priced internal 4TB HDD.

    just received a Seagate 4TB tested in two computers neither of which detect it newest of the two computers has a supermicro C7SIM-Q mobo, do I need a more recent motherboard to use a 4TB drive? incidentally, the drive failed seatools

    For me, little hassle. Logon to server console and identify failed drive Shut down server and remove failed drive Remove failed drive from its caddy and replace with a fresh drive (i have spares) Replace new drive Reboot server Start rebuild Send failed drive back to seagate
