I had a power edge SC1435 with a small SAS drive connected to a PERC-i card. I wanted more storage and have bought a large SATA drive. I removed the SAS and connected the SATA to the PERC-i controller. It recognizes it but randomly freezes the disk intermittently.
Can't figure out what the problem is. On the other hand the motherboard seems to have two SATA risers on it. Should this be a better option to connect? Also, I read that Dell does not recommend mixing SAS and SATA drives in the SC1435. Does that apply to drives connected to the PERC-i alone? Or can I have a SAS-drive connected to the PERC-i and a SATA connected directly to the motherboard riser? -- Rahul _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@dell.com https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
