Generic Hard Drives
I'm planning on buying a new ML370 G6 Server, and I already have 3x 1TB generic SATA drives that I use for non-essential backups on the server i'm replacing. Is it possible to attach generic SATA drives internally to the ML370 G6?
I do not need them to be hot swappable. I just need them to be attached to the server internally, and be able to use RAID5 to have a total of 2TB array.
Thanks!
Paul

Re: Generic Hard Drives
Also, I was worried that it might void my 3yr onsite warranty, but I found this on HP's website:
Q17. Will my warranty be affected if I install a non-HP upgrade/option in my HP product ?
HP warranty extends only to HP products and options. If you install a non-HP option into your HP product and this option then fails, you must contact the supplier for warranty cover on that item.
The warranty on your HP product will not be affected by the installation of a non-HP upgrade/option unless your HP product is damaged as a result of installation and/or operation of a third party option, such damage will not be covered by HP warranty.
If your HP product is not operating correctly, you may be asked to verify that any non-HP option is not responsible for the problem be uninstalling any such items.

Please let me know if I am wrong, but this tells me that adding the 3x1TB generic drives will not void the warranty.
Thanks!

Re: Generic Hard Drives
check the quick specification guide,
from this Proliant server, or check it on partsurfer from HP.

Re: Generic Hard Drives
Is there a standard bay to insert a generic (seagate) SATA hard drive? and are there available SATA ports on the motherboard (Integrated RAID Controller)?
Thanks,
Paul

Re: Generic Hard Drives
if you install nonSupported parts to the HP servers, the warranty is gone.
