ML150 & 3rd Party Drives

[Tim Palmquist]

I am attempting to utilize Seagate 400GB SATA drives in an ML150. To accomplish this goal I am purchasing the non-pluggable SCSI version (380191-001) of the server (to eliminate the backplane). I am then planning to add the 6 port SATA controller (372953-B21) and then install the Seagate SATA drives. My remaining obsticals are: the drive rails for the non-pluggable drive bays and a 6 port SATA cable. I cannot seem to find the drive rails at HP spare parts. This is a one time configuration that is being driven by the client. Ideas?
