AFAIK, VROC has two variants, actual HW RAID and so-called fake RAID. If it is the fake RAID variant, it will be ignored and the single disks should be shown in the installer.

If it is an actual HW RAID, it should only show a single block device for each RAID to the OS.

In consumer boards, the chances of VROC being the fake RAID variant are quite 
high.

But why not ZFS with mirrored (maybe even multiple mirrored disk, RAID 10 like)?
In case of a disk failure, the handling of it is much nicer and if you can hotplug the disks, you don't even need to power down the machine.

Hello List,

Quick question. I'm currently looking into upgrading my home Proxmox
server (using PC components meant for the home market, for cost
reasons), and getting a "real" hardware RAID proposition under these
conditions turns out to be quite an ordeal. Intel RST/VROC seems to be
the only available option.

Can anyone on this list please confirm whether these technologies are
supported by the latest Proxmox VE installer/kernel ?

Thanks in advance.

Ph. A.
