MSA30 Dual Bus

Can I create one large volume with the MSA30 dual bus using all 14 drives and 2 SCSI array controllers?

Thanks

No you can not

you can create it using single array controller ( SA 6404)

Its disappointing, but you can't.

Because, each controller is internally connected to 7 drives.

You might be able to use a volume manager on your operating system to combine the logical disks from both array controllers to one large volume.

Like HP Openview Storage Virtual Replicator or similiar... if your running Windows. Or "Software" Striping in Windows.
