The answer to this seems to be yes and I don't need interposers.

SATA / SAS convertible on latest PE's with H700?

2010-10-13 Thread Sabuj Pattanayek
Hi,

If I purchase a PE, again say a R515, with all cheap 160GB SATA
drives, can I replace them with larger SAS drives? Can the carriers
that come with the SATA drives be used with the SAS drives? Do I need
interposers? Is Dell now allowing non dell flashed drives in systems
with their H700's?

Thanks,
Sabuj
