Has anyone had similar experience/solution or can anyone recommend a good RAID card which will work (E200 doesn't support RAID 5)
Thanks,
Jon
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: ML150 G3 and RAID 5 (P400)
Yep I missed the BBWC option for RAID 5.
Unless anyone knows how to get the P400/512MB working (which I have bought) then I will go and purchase the E200/128.

Re: ML150 G3 and RAID 5 (P400)
P400 SAS controller is not supported on ML150 G3 server.
Please check the worldwide quick specs for this server

Re: ML150 G3 and RAID 5 (P400)
WHY?
What would keep the P400 from working? You use the word 'supported', what happens? Or is it that there is no PCIe slot in the G3? Well, now you made me look I was so interested, and though there seems to be no document I could find that detail what the G3 has (the User Guide does not mention what the slots are), it does not look like it has a 64bit PCIe slot to actually accept the card.
Is that correct? If so, you would need an older PCI RAID card that supports, I am guessing here because of the 250GB, SATA

Re: ML150 G3 and RAID 5 (P400)
3 x PCI-X (64-bit/100MHz)
2 x PCI-Express (x4\x8)
1 x PCI (32-bit/33MHz)
So physically you could fit almost any disk controller, the problem is what's supported and what's not.

Re: ML150 G3 and RAID 5 (P400)
it's right that server has this
2 x PCI-Express (x4\x8)
so e200 is x4 and p400 is x8 so p400 fits but "No Probs" says server does not detect HDDs weird jeje

Re: ML150 G3 and RAID 5 (P400)
I have the P400 card in the PCIe 8x slot and the server (BIOS ans OS) recognises the card just fine but never presents the option "to press F8 for ORCA/BIOS)". Similarly from the OS Array Utility recognises the card but not the disks attached.
Whilst I accept that purchasing the P400 was an error on my part I am use to Unsupported meaning it works but.... Eg the Dell PCI-X Raid card I have in another HP server works fine but I wouldn't call HP for support on it.
With the above problem I initially thought the RAID card was faulty so I replaced but I have the same issue with the 2nd card.
If anyone knows a workaround or why HP would stop you from using a better RAID card in a server then I would keen to know.

Re: ML150 G3 and RAID 5 (P400)
Thanks - I tried quite a few different BIOS options eg disable embedded RAID but had no success :(
