Convert Software Raid To Hardware. I pulled an PERC H200 from an extra R710 and installed on the R330 trying to setup a raid and utilize ESXI. The RAID can be implemented either using a special controller hardware RAID or by an operating system driver software RAID.
After setting up a Raid 1 with single hot spare I realized that ESXI is not fully compatible with software raids. The RAID can be implemented either using a special controller hardware RAID or by an operating system driver software RAID. We now want to add a RAID controller so we can configure for hardware RAID 10.
Convert from software to hardware raid.
To improve the performance reliability and capacity of your hard disk the Redundant Array of Independent Disks is created. After setting up a Raid 1 with single hot spare I realized that ESXI is not fully compatible with software raids. We now want to add a RAID controller so we can configure for hardware RAID 10. RAID stands for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks.
