Smart Array 6i Controller

Is there a maximum amount of Arrays that can be created on the above controller?

Scenario: DL380 G4, Array A - logical drive 1,2,3. Array B - logical drive 4,5.

Want to add 2 new 300gb disks in the 2 remaining slots and create Array C.

I assume this is possible. I don't want to add these disks to a previous array or the space will be distributed amongst the original logical drives (which has happened before).

This is happening 24/11/07 at 11am so i'll be forever greatful for a a reasurrance by then.

Cheers

Hello Andrew,
I don't think that should be an issue at all.
Recommendation :
128MB Battery Backed Write Cache Enabler Option Kit : 346914-B21

Regards.
