ProLiant DL180 G6 with a P410 array controller would like to go to a Battery Backed Write Cache

Popinator — Tue, 31 Jan 2017 17:43:34 GMT

I have a ProLiant DL180 G6 server with a P410 controller with a 256MB cache board in it. I had some problems with the server/controller/ hard drives, causing a lose of data and was hoping that upgrading the system to a P410 512MB controller with Battery Backed Write Cache is this upgrade possible? I know what parts are needed just unsure if this can be done, most of what I have found seems to deal with a DL380 G9..
