C7000 DVD Slow

[Mohamed Galal]

Hi,
I have Blade chassis c7000 it has 8 ProLiant BL460c G6 Servers. I tried to install the OS by booting external DVD USB drive but it couldn't.
it could boot only by the OA USB or by virtual Device but it looks very very slow "about 5 times slower".

I need Help

OA virtual media _is_ slow. I have had good results with LG USB DVD drives connected to SUV cable.

[Mohamed Galal]

does it work with some types of DVD drives??
what kind of drives I have to use?
I used LG one but it didn't work?

It should work with all kind of drives, but I have seen that the oldest possible with no extra features will work best.
