Hi all,
I have a Compaq DL380 g2. The server uses a Smart Array 5300 SCSI controller (FW version 2.32), with 4 disks of 18Gb connected to it.
When the server is rebooted and initializes it's smart array controller, a message appears in the POST screen --> SCSI Port 1: SCSI Disk 2 needs a firmware upgrade.
So I have checked the controller with insight manager, and found that the specified disk is another model disk then the others.
A few questions:
1. Does it matter if all disks in a Array are not from the same model.
2. What will happen if the disk is not upgraded with the latest firmware, Performance loss????
thanks for your time.
