Hi , i am new to hpe server .
i have an HPE ML350 Gen10 (3106 1P 16G 4LFF) with default Raid controller i think is (SA100i).
i want to install Vmware on this server and i want to configure Raid 10 .
i up grade RAM to 64MB and i buy additional 4LFF hot plug drive backplane cage kit and 4 SSD hard drive .

My question is , Can i install Vmaware on this server ?

You can instal VMware on this server, but you cannot get RAID support for the S100i, only plain AHCI SATA. The S100i only offers RAID for Windows, for Linux or VMware you will need to install one of the optional RAID controllers

Essential RAID Controller
• HPE Smart Array E208i-a SR Gen10 Controller
• HPE Smart Array E208i-p SR Gen10 Controller
Performance RAID Controller
• HPE Smart Array P408i-a SR Gen10 Controller
• HPE Smart Array P408i-p SR Gen10 Controller
