RAID configuration and SAS

Can we mix 10k SAS with 15k SAS in a RAID 5 or 1 configuration?

 

Thanks,

BGT

Hello, where are you installing these and in what kind of array controller?

Usually I don't think it would be a problem.

Re: RAID configuration and SAS

In a server, I am about to build a RAID 5 HDDs which composes all 10k  - HP Smart Array P410i controller

 

There would be 3 HDD which is 10k and 2 pieces 15k SAS @ 146GB. Addional question, is it advisable to have different capacity of drives in a RAID configuration?

 

Thanks a lot!
