upgrade hardware

I am considering upgrading this server to hardware SCSI Raid and going to Windows2000 server. The current config is 2-Compaq 9GB Ultra II hard drives that I have mirrored. Would installing an additional hard drive (are they still available?) for a total of 3 drives with an Adaptec SCSI RAID controller 2100S card be an option for us with this hardware?

Re: upgrade hardware

Hi, many adaptec controller works fine with are server but for compatibility you might want to contact Adaptec to confirmed your model. Always make sure you have the latest system rom and system configuration utility. 9.1 gig hard drive might be hard to get. Now are you thinking of setting up from fresh; you might not have any choice. In this case you might want to run erase utlity.
