Dear All, Thanks for revert on this , if we want to get other SAS controller, which brand and model that can recommended for Linux system. This time round we would like some real HW RAID instead fake RAID.
I don't belive Linux does not supporrt software RAID, it should have it own software driver from chipset manufacturer in this case it is LSI, do you think this workable too Jack SING Network & IT Infra Manager cum RSO (Regional Security Officer) Brenntag Asia Pacific Pte.

The server itself can run Linux OS but you need to install RAID controllers other than any Sx00 Perc. All S-series Percs are Windows-only + there are no Linux soltutions that I know of. Cheers.

So this device is for a more a software driven RAID. The driver are only available for Windows. http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/storage/Storlink/PERC_S100_S300/en/HTML/index.htm Unfortunaly you will not be able to use Linux in this configuration.
