It depends.

On newer servers like rx3600/6600/2660 there are SAS disks either under LSI or smartarray P400 controller control.


What do you have?

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Shalom Nirav,

If you have a P400 hardware controller, you can boot your system at console, use the nvram program to configure and present new disks.

If you need to use any kind of raid, this is the most efficient way to accomplish your goal.

Please post:
model

Hardware details.
