License Key for Smart Array P410i configure RAID 6

Hi all,

My DL380 G7 has 8 hard disk with Smart Array P410i, i want to create an array with RAID 6 for 8 HDD, HP support suggest me buy an license for configuring RAID 6.

I have just ordered the license and the supplier tell me the license will be deliviered to me in 4-6 weeks. 

The Question is:

Can i use the the 60 days free trial license download from HP website at: http://www.hp.com/go/saap for configuring RAID6 and copy data to this RAID6 Array ?

Does my data on RAID 6 Array lost or damage if i add the paid license from supplier and remove the trial license ?

I have already called to HP support in my country ask about this but all of them can not answer my question

 

I will appreciate all your answer !!!

Thanks so much,

Please help !!!

I'm positive that it will not impact your raid, once you have your actual license you can change it from trial to advanced key without impacting raid.
