But it depends as to what do u need it for and how much money you have budgeted for this.

I need to add 2 x 18gb drives to my array. I have downloaded the ACU tool but when this is ran I get the error "battery backup needed". One option I have is erase then rebuild the server from a backup, BUT could I purchse a new Smart Array card with battery backup and somehow rebuild the array with the new card? Then expand the array? <BR /> <BR />Thanks <BR /> <BR />Paul Sheldon Thu, 18 Jul 2002 23:00:00 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/proliant-servers-ml-dl-sl/add-disk-to-logical-array-sa221/m-p/2767627#M11514 Ayman Altounji 2002-07-18T23:00:00Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/proliant-servers-ml-dl-sl/add-disk-to-logical-array-sa221/m-p/2767628#M11515 Hello,<BR />Yes you can buy an Array Controller with a battery backup and reconfigure your system.
