HP ProLiant ML350 G5

[chipeta]

am using SSCD version 7.8 and have done firmware update to the latest version 7.91

[chipeta]

if i install the OS without the SSCD will i guess i will loss the data on the HDD when i revert to the controller, will the drivers installed still apply to the controller after the data is lost?

sorry

what do you mean by data lost? is that fresh installation right?

you mean the RAID level that you configure with Smart start cd?

[chipeta]

what i meant was what will be the use of doing the manual install when i will loss the data on the HDD

hi

Ok so what you're doing is not a fresh installation?

I mean when you say loss data you mean your server already has another windows? or any other data?

mmm so you previously with the e200 had windows? if so try windows repairing, check this link

it is a fresh installation may be what i need to know is "is it possible to install the OS without using the SSCD and the Smart Controller?"

hi

as far as I know W2003 must include the driver for the p400 controller
