Hello Jens,
Yes, it works for us - a PowerEdge R930 (RHEL7) with a PERC H810 controller,
connecting a MD1200 drawer, full with 4TB 3.5' SATA hard drives (12 drives
in two big RAID5 sets...), more details below...
Cheers,
Steve Baroti

Subject: [Linux-PowerEdge] OT: PERC H810 in R630 or other 13th gen. server

Hi

A bit off topic, but I’ve found almost nothing related to my question..

I’ve got an old PERC H810 controller that’s been used with a MD1200 shelf.

If I want to hook that up to a 13th gen. server such as a R630 or R430 -
will that work?

I’ve found
https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1980149-dell-perc-h810-and-poweredge-
r630-compatiblilty via google that mentions not comming through POST/UEFI
boot, but can anyone confirm it?

I do not care about getting support from Dell on this since the PERC H810
and MD1200 shelf is out of warrenty anyway, but it’s still capable of
holding 12 3.5” disks and provide some storage in a non-critical
environment, and I’d like to use that if possible.

Regards,
Jens Dueholm Christensen
