Salut Julien / Hi kfx. I'm sure this goes without saying; nevertheless, make sure you don't remove the wrong drive. Lol!
The R510 can hold at least 14 SAS drives (12 external + 2 internal) - before spilling over to external cage(s) / shelf(s). You also might want to check disk & HBA firmware version(s) - after things stabilize. Brent Le 12/07/2017 06:08, Julien a acrit : Hi, If the 2 drive are 2.5" and SAS, I think there are no problem (12Gb/s SAS are backward compatible with 6Gb/s SAS like SATA II and III). The hot swap capabilities for physical not hot-swapable drive personally I don't care about it ! On R510 you need to unplug the disk server off and plug back the new drive when server run to make rebuild star automatically. 11/07/2017 15:44, kfx wrote : > Hi list, > I can't find a decent answer on the net, so I'm trying here: > On a R510 equipped with a PERC H700 and 12x3.5" HDD (external), I have > a faulty _internal_ 2.5" HDD (Slot Number: 12). > The faulty HDD is a: > FUJITSU MBD2300RC (2.5" 300GB 10k SAS 6Gb/s) > > I know that those internal hard-drive are not hot swappable, so before > doing something stupid and causing unnecessary downtime, can you > please tell me if the following drive (bought from dell) is compatible: > > Seagate ST300MM0008 (2.5" 300GB 10k SAS 12Gb/s) > > The drive was meant as a hot-spare replacement for an _external_ HDD > (it cames fixed in a caddy/trail) and not for this particular server > as Dell don't sell anymore the particular model I need :( > Thank you very much if you have a definitive answer (my RAID1 is > degraded for 10 days now, I feel the anxiety rising) kfx -- THIS MESSAGE IS FOR THE USE OF THE INTENDED RECIPIENT(S) ONLY AND MAY CONTAIN INFORMATION THAT IS PRIVILEGED, PROPRIETARY, CONFIDENTIAL, AND/OR EXEMPT FROM DISCLOSURE UNDER ANY RELEVANT PRIVACY LEGISLATION.
