HI Chris, appreciate reply.  Yes that certainly helps me. Also gives me some learning to do.  Said I was a newbie to this, well fairly new.  Cheers  Phil
Hi all, probably been asked a few times this, but I am new to this server and would like to upgrade it's Raid to a level 5 or 6 to handle more hard drives. Currently has a Perc 700 Level 0 or 1. What could I upgrade it to and do I need to also upgrade the battery?  Is it possible with perc 5 and 6 to have to 2 arrays running, as I would like to keep our Database and Exchange in windows 2012 separate from main operating system's drive. Fairly newbie question to Raid here, although experienced them in my Alienware system, but this is a little different.  Thanks in advance  Phil
