When I selected my servers and decided about their specifications, this (red) note was not on the site, and I'm sure about that, because I don't have any Windows servers on my network. Now that I have ordered and recieved them, I'm looking for a solution. I ordered this kit: Dell PowerEdge HDD DATA CABLE KIT DP/N C450M CN-0C450M [IMAGE] I'll recieve it next week. I hope this will help me bypass this annoying issue.
Hello I bought new servers two of them came with PERC S300 controllers. When I tried to install Linux (CentOS) on it, the system couldn't see the RAID! After some researches , I noticed that it is Windows specific (fake RAID) I want to disable this controller and connect my HDDs directly to the main board SATA connectors, and implement a software RAID solution under Linux. What I need is : What cables do I have to order for that purpose? Thanks
