So I inherited this server , (sitting on site since February) low and behold when I fire it up it turns out that whoever set it up used all 8 discs in a raid 5 (granted they are only 500gb enterprise ssd's ) but still raid 5? and no hot spare?
I'm trying to figure what the purpose of this server is/was, but aside from a losing some space wouldn't a raid 6 and hot spare make MUCH more sense? I'd like to move some of their VMs to it, as it is a brand spanking new r730 with 96gb of ram
