RAID Controller for V890

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can tell me whether there is a RAID controller available for V890 for its internal FC-AL hard disks. I've never seen a RAID controller for FC hard disks and my vendor claims that there is no RAID controller available for the V890. So many hard disk slots & no RAID controller doesnt seem like the best of ideas. Software RAID just doesnt cut it when u apply RAID 5 on this number of hard disks.
Regards

Hello There,
There is no RAID Controller available to be used internaly for V880/890.

  • Need software for Intel ESB2 SATA RAID Controller for Windows 2012rR

    I have installed Windows 2012r2 on my HP XW8600 and I found the software for the LSI Adapter (SAS 3000 series) but I am unable to find the software for management of the Intel ESB2 SATA RAID controller.  The only software I could find was listed as a Windows 7 application but will not install onto my Windows 2012r2.   Thank You 

    That looks exactly like the software I tried and an error reported this software will not install on this platform.  I will try again tonite and see what happens.  I will test all the apps on that list starting with the latest and see what happens. I thank you for your help.   

  • Raid controller for windowsXP x64 and correct CPU voltages

    I just got Windows XP x64 edition and I have a raid array.  I tried to install it with the raid driver that came with my board but it didn't work.  I am wondering if anyone knows where I could get the raid driver.
    I also want to overclock my computer and I am wondering what should the stock voltages should be.
    Thx

  • Areca controller for the x2100 fire server

    Hi
    We just purchased the sun x2100 server, for the purpose of hosting some applications on the linux platform. Unfortunaly the nvraid controller is not well supported on the centos (red hat enterprise clone), and therefore we cannot get raid1 with failover to work on this server.
    I have searched the market and found that the areca ARC-1210 controller to be a well supported controller on centos and other linux distros, and allso the best hardware raid controller for the pci-E port.
    We have previously used 3ware controllers for this purpose, but amcc has not produced any controllers for the pci-e port.
    Have anyone here any experiences with the areca controller on the x2100 server ? Its very important for us ta have a solid well working raid1 solution with failover and quick init restore while server is operative.

    the areca controllers seem to have massive problems on the x2100 M2 (tested with areca 1210). Without disks attached to the controller the x2100 might boot (in some cases) but with disks attached to the controller it always fails. it couldbe / seems there is an interrupt problem (usb using irq15, controller using irq15).
    this is even worse since areca is a very well supported controller on alot plattforms and the onboard nvidia fraid doesnt seem to work at all (rebuilding/state detection).
    late reply, but better late then never :)

  • Hardware RAID Controller

    Hello,
    Can someone tell me if there is ANY available RAID controller for Sparc platform, specifically E servers? I can't find anything anywhere on this, but it seems such a gaping hole I'm surely missing something. Anything equivalent to the myriad of controllers available from Adaptec, Compaq, Mylex, etc. on Intel? 3-rd party maybe?
    thx

    Which "E server"? Sun sells the SRC/P RAID controller
    on a PCI card. It was not qualified on all servers, so
    it is difficult to answer your question specifically.

  • How to update Simplex STK2540 RAID Controller firmware?

    Hello,
    No, this is not a supported/qualified procedure. We support the migration from simplex to duplex, however we do not support/qualify the migration from duplex to simplex.

  • C-220M3 RAID controller

    Hello,
    Cisco people has told me C-220M3 has to mandatory bring a RAID controller in it if you configure one HDD...actually Dynamic Configuration Tool doesn't let me configure a C220M3 server with one HDD if I don't add a RAID controller. I'm trying to find a technical explanation for that...as I recall, the old C-200M2 can be configured with one HDD and without any RAID controller at all, and that doesn't pose any problems.
    Any inputs on that?
    Thanks,

    Hi Dani,
    the C200 server has a in-build RAID controller which you could use. However on a C220 there are no similar integrated modules available and you need to choose either a mezz or a PCI (LSI) RAID controller for RAID configuration.
    here is the chapter from the configuration guide:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c/hw/C220/install/raid.html
    Thanks!

  • X4200 - Need SAS RAID controller

    I cant seem to find a half height PCIX SAS RAID controller for our x4200s.
    I've been looking at Adaptec, they don't have a 1/2 height (2U) card.
    LSI has a few cards, but no solaris drivers.
    I need assistance in deciding whether to buy new disk arrays, or new servers.
    Thanks!

    Running 2 different raid cards often depends more on the system board's bios than the cards. The most common problem is resource conflicts. With the current boards and PCI-e controllers on both the chipset and the southbrdige, it's alittle easier to do this without running into this problem. Just make sure you install 1 controller first after you update the bios on the board. Get the driver installed and update the firmware on that card before you install the 2nd card. Then update the firmware on that. If you use the component layout in Asus manuals to see which slots are attached to where, then you can make sure you have 1 card on the chipset and 1 on the southbridge.

  • Cache drive & Raid Controller?

    HI all,
    Ok so it's time for me to buy my media drives for my 6TB project.
    I am going with (3) 4TB 7200 rpm seagate drives (Raid0)
    Hopefully that will give me enough data rate to edit it realtime (c300-MXF files),  intel 6 core, 16 gig ram, 760 gtx 2g mem
    I have 2 final questions:
    1. After testing my current drive performance, I noticed that while playing/scrubbing my timeline (premiere cc) I noticed that my cache drive had 0-1 % activity  and  my Media drive was at 100%
    So just how important is the cache drive for "performace"???
    2. Can I use my onboard Bios Raid controller for my (3) raid0?
    Or should I buy a controller?
    if yes, Why?
    If yes, can someone reccomend a "reasonable" priced controller?
    Thanks So Much,
    Lou

    The answer to #2  depends on your motherboard .  What is it?
    Your RAID 0 configuration has no parity so it requires very regular backups maybe even several times a day after each editing session.  I call it the "poor man's choice" as I also use it.  It just so happens that my good friend Harm just alerted me to this new Western Digital (the Hitachi acquistion) for a new 6 GB drive the Ultrastar He6 which might be perfect for your backups.  Interesting it is filled with Helium.

    I just now remember you picked the GA-Z68XP-UD4 after my suggestion, yes you can put three drives in RAID 0 by using the (4) Intel SATA 3GB/s ports. It might limit the maximum performance slightly as opposed to using the same devices on three 6GB/s ports but I do not think the limitation will be serious.

  • Shopping For A RAID Controller

    I have seen the Areca brand name on here many times, so I assume they are the best for what we do. But, there are so many models that I have no idea what to look for. I probably won't ever have more than 4 or 6 storage drives plus an SSD system drive. Maybe a couple of external drives and an NAS.
    If I have Windows 7 64-bit
    i7-2600k processor
    ASUS P8P67 Pro motherboard
    32 GB RAM 1600
    GeForce GTX 580 Amp! from Zotac
    AX850 PSU from Corsair
    Every component is reasonably fast, bu I am sick of the senseless limitations of this mootherboard. My drives are aging so they need to be replaced.
    Which specs are important for video editing? Which brand and models are most popular and shoould I wait for some new release?
    Another thought - If a RAID controller is over $400 US, Is it more cost-effective to upgrade to a more capable motherboard/processor with all the ports I need?

    What to look for
    Brand
    Areca or LSI
    Ports
    8 or more
    Card
    PCIe-3.0 8x
    Cache
    512 MB or more
    Multi-lane
    SFF-8087/8088
    Examples
    Areca ARC-1882 series or LSI MegaRAID 9285
    Warning: You have to realize that on your motherboard adding a dedicated raid controller will entail that your video card will throttle down from PCIe-16x to PCIe-8x mode, resulting in a 10 - 15% performance penalty, due to limitations of the chipset. A dedicated raid controller, especially with around 6 disks always outperforms an on-board raid by a wide margin. To see some benchmark results, look here:  Reflections
    To see what meets your requirements, also consider the raid level you want to use. If raid3 or raid30, then LSI is out. You can check out what controllers are popular here: Detailed Results but you have to be registered and logged in to access the page.

  • "Update for raid controller firmware" in availabel system upgrade does not go away after upgrade

    We have two Ironport WSA, one S360 and one S370. Both stil have the "Update for raid controller firmware" still listed in "Available upgrades" even though we have done the update and rebooted the appliances.
    How can we confirm that the update is applied?
    If it is and the notice is still there how do we get rid of the reminder?

    Go to the command line of the appliacne and run "version"
    That will show you the current version of the firmware.
    If you have record of what was there, you can compare...
    Otherwise contact TAC, they can verify that you have the up-to-date version and pull your serial from the distribution list so you don't see it any more.

  • Raid card for FCAL V890

    Hi,
    We would like to know whether V890 FCAL HDD supports hardware raid. If there is no internal raid for the HDD's which card needs to be installed so that the server supports raid 5 for FCAL disks.

    There isn't any such card. The disk sub system in the V890 is JBOD and all the HBA options are are juat HBAs. You can use Solaris Volume Managet to configure the disks.

  • Oracle Ent. Linux  drivers for HP Smart Array B110i Sata Raid Controller

    Trying to install Oracle Ent. Linux (OEL) release 4 update 8 on HP DL 180 G6 server. Where we can find OEL drivers for the sata raid controller ?
    (HP Smart Array B110i Sata Raid Controller)
    Thanks in advance.

    The HP support side shows a Linux certification matrix at: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/servers/linux/hplinuxcert.html
    From there you can also download the necessary drivers and instructions or use HP smartstart CD which prepares the system for the OS you need to install. Oracle Enterprise Linux is binary compatible with RHEL. You will need to click on "Archive" to see support for Enterprise Linux version 4 and older.
