Hello Mike,   first things first, the SSDs will fit in the carriers. As long as the replacement drives have the same dimensions as the original drives.    You can not mix SSDs with HDDs, don't know who mentioned that but it is wrong.   In your case, a new RAID needs to be created. So backup all the data from the current VD, create a new VD with the SSDs, deploy the backup to the new VD, confirm everything is working as desired. Then you can destroy the old VD.   CheersStefan
Running RAID 5, I will be replacing the current 3x SAS Dell Savivo 10K.6 300GB hard drives with 3x Samsung 860 Pro 2.5" SSDs. Will I need an adapter, cradle or anything to make them fit? Can I use the current drive tray/caddy P/N: WX387 DSH-1? And will the Samsung 860 Pro SSDs connect correctly to the SAS connectors? Any known issues or concerns with SSDs on this server or with this controller: Dell PERC H710 SCSI? EDIT: Also, I was told I could re-silver the drives, simply replace each HDD with SSD one at a time as if the HDD was faulty. Is this possible? I didn't think you could mix HDDs and SSDs.   Thanks in advance! Mike
