Hi Alex,   Yes, you can set up multiple RAID 5s in this manner without creating any issues. You can go into either OMSA or the iDRAC and use the web GUI to deploy a new virtual disk, and it will also let you manually select the disks. This way you'll know exactly what disks are being touch with this second RAID container.
Dear experts, Im using Dell Poweredge R730, i have 8x 1TB disk. 4 Disks already setup to RAID5 last 3 years. I bought new 4 Disk since need more space on the server. I want to split 8 disk = 4 Disk / 4 Disk into multiple raid (RAID 5). I know it's possible to create a multiple raid on OMSA on the virtual disk section. My question is: Is there any effect on the old 4 Disk since i want to create 1 more VD on OMSA.   *Sorry im new in this industry, if you guys need more information please let me know.
