SolutionHi,
As these disks are "just" sata the max. speed is 3G.
But check the entry below "Negotiated Link Rate".
For me it says : "Phy Count: 2"
And also the product descriptions says:
"hot-swap dual-port Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard drive - 10,000 RPM, 6Gb/sec transfer rate"
The key is "dual port"...
And this is how you get the 6G..
kind regards
markus

Re: 6G Disk detected as 3G by P410i controller
At least it says the management homepage,ADU and product specs I think.
It may be something else...

Re: 6G Disk detected as 3G by P410i controller
Hi again,
i think you missunderstood me; or my wording was false
Fact is:
- the discs are "normal" sata discs
and
- maximum sata speed is 3Gb/s
The bandwidth of 6Gb/s are available because there are TWO sata connections to the drive (dual port).
So in fact you have 2*3Gb/s = 6Gb/s
As already written: check the "Phy. Connection" entry, if you have a "2", you have your 6Gb/s...
regards
Markus

Re: 6G Disk detected as 3G by P410i controller
Then, I think its running using only one physical connection.
But the Drive cage support 6G and controller too, so I dont know where is the problem...

Re: 6G Disk detected as 3G by P410i controller
Did you upgrade ALL of the required firmware in the system or just the controller?
- Controller
- Backplane
- iLO2
If all of the requirement have been met AND you have the correct drives then the system will realize the maximum speeds as designed.
146GB 6G drive model numbers:
HP 146GB 6G SAS 15K SFF (2.5-inch) Dual Port Enterprise 3yr Warranty Hard Drive 512547-B21
HP 146GB 6G SAS 10K SFF (2.5-inch) Dual Port Enterprise 3yr Warranty Hard Drive 507125-B21
HP 146GB 6G SAS 10K SFF (2.5-inch) Non-hot Plug Dual Port ENT 3y Wty Hard Drive 537807-B21

Verify your drive part numbers.
Rgds,

Re: 6G Disk detected as 3G by P410i controller
Smart Array P410i: 2.74
ILO Firmware: 1.80
and at this moment dont remember where I can see drive cage firmware, but I saw it past week and was 1.16 I think, the requiered one.
My hard drives partnumbers:
RAID1 507125-B21 x 2 Uds (Firmware HPDD)
(One drive have a HPD5 firmware)
RAID5 512547-B21 x 3 Uds (Firmware HPDD)
My HP server partnumber is 491316-421, its a a performance model so I think It may be enought to run at 6G, at least specs of parts says that.
Many thanks
