Replace Smart Array 5i w/ 5i Plus - DL380 G2

Melinda Myers_2 — Wed, 01 Jun 2005 10:07:07 GMT

I have a DL380 G2 server that has a defective Smart Array 5i Controller (part # 228510-001). I ordered 264030-B21 "SMART ARRAY 5I PLUS CONTROLLER (BBWC) ENABLER FOR DL380 G2" from a third party vendor. (They sent me part 274400-001 which is actually for a ML370R G2.) Before I insist that they send the "correct" part, I want to make sure that the part I am ordering is indeed correct. Can I use 264030-B21 w/o making any changes to the motherboard? Also, where can I find installation documentation for this part?

Thanks,

Melinda

Yes, this is correct piece, and you can use it without any problems in DL380G2 (only)
quick spec:

Short installation instructions, if I remember, are on the cover plate.
