I would like to purchase nice Compaq solution that will allow me to do dual channels internally as well as Dual channels externally. If at all possible, are there any other models out there that provide such support. Perhaps something that will allow me to do u320?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: DL380 G2 Hardware RAID upgrade options...
would the Smart Array 6404 be an option?
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliantstorage/arraycontrollers/smartarray6400/index.html
It does not list the DL380 G2 as an officially supported server, just from the G3 onwards. I think this might be because the 6400 came out after the DL380 G2 was retired. It should work, it's a PCI-X Adapter, with 4x U320 channels, up to 2 of them internal. I don't know if the internal drive cage of the DL380 G2 can do U320.
Regards,
Stephen

SolutionYou can only do a single channel internally on the DL380 G2 as there is only one connector to the SCSI backplane.
The 6404 card should work though and still allow you the two external channels. There are two PCI-X and a single PCI slot in that server.
