If i use a hp sas expander in fileserver 2, (it has mobo and psu and i'm using it as a server) What will happen if i shut it down.
The expander will lose power of course. Will drives drop out off my raid then ?
I have 2 fileserevers in two xcase RM 424 cases. In fileserver 1 i have the areca card. it's filled up with 24 drives now. To save some money is it possible to use a sas expander in fileserver 2. Or is it a bad idea?
I'm using a areca 1800 ix 24 and have one array with 8 hitachi 7k2000. Now i have 12 5k3000 and started Initializing them using foreground.I'm using them in a new array as i don't want to mix the drives. I can not see my 8 7k2000 array anymore, it's gone... is it so when using foreground or...
Hi SiRCYRO.
I'm only curious about what drives you end up using with your rocketraid 4320. I have one also and the WD2002FYPS on the compatibility list is to expensive.
