I've heard rumors that Dell has made it so that you can only use their drives in some of the PowerEdge models, does anyone know if this is true of the C1100?
 
it's been that way for a while, apparently.
We have an old PE 4600, except it wouldn't accept even "newer" Dell drives.

Even though they were the same Seagate Baracuda 15k RPM 147GB drives; just a few years newer.

Dell OMSA would say a "Non-Dell disk has been inserted" or something along those lines.

Although I'm guessing it's more programmed in the PERC card than the server itself, since this was on a RAID array off a Perc5
 
Nope. they tried to do this with the H700 and removed it due to customer backlash
 
C1100 works fine with non-Dell disks and SSDs.
