    ARECA Owner's Thread (SAS/SATA RAID Cards)

    update: I decided to put 1680 controller back on since I don't know what else to try and both arrays are detected again by the original controller. Does anyone know why wouldn't my 1260 controller see either array created by 1680 card? Is it not backward compatibles? thanks

    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    all this time I thought the drive order doesn't matter as long the controller is same brand. Does that means if one don't know the order of each drive will lose the data for good? the 1260 has sata connectors whereas 1680 is all SAS. how do you go about making sure that they are in order? sorry...
