One explanation might be that the disks are not identical. Dell will
sometimes ship different model drives depending on availability, or the

might check with perccli to see if this is a possibility.

Onno, I'm not sure how Dell allows you to configure the server at order
time, but Dell often have configuration limitations that do not seem
immediately obvious. As a concrete example, if one tries to configure a

Yes. You can mix drives of different sizes and speeds as long as A) the
drives are of the same type (no mixing SATA & SAS or mixing HDDs & SSDs
in the same array) and B) the new drives are the same size or larger
than the drive they are replacing.
Please note, installing slower drives may lead
You don't mention which version of FireFox, OS, or Java you're using.
Most problems I've ran into are client side, and are usually ruled out
there.
To rule out a server issue, I would suggest resetting the iDRAC via ssh
and updating to the latest iDrac firmware (Dell's site shows this as 2.85).

I recently purchased a couple Dell branded 2TB SATA drives. They are
Hitachi's - HDS72202A28A.
Can't comment on how Dell sells them - the
No. The PERC6/i is an integrated controller which is only compatible
with select PE servers that have the specific daughter board
connections. The T110 does not have the proper connector. You can,
however, use a PERC6/E (or other controller) in one of the PCI-e slots.
