Hi,
In my home lab, I have a DL580 gen 5 server that I use for virtualisation and testing. It has 4 older cpu's and 64GB ram which is perfect for what I need it.
Only problem is the raid controller. It is a P400 which supports SATA up to 1,5GB/s (or SATA I) ... as I'm constantly creating, deleting, cloning vm's I want to use 2 consumer grade SSD's in RAID0 as datastore. But to get all the speed out of these things, I would need at least SATA III (6GB/s) support.
Is there a RAID controller compatible with DL580 gen5 that supports SATA III (6GB/s) ?
Thank you for all the info!!
Tom
