Thanks for the tip. I'm planning to use the server as a personal machine only so I think it'll be ok? Currently I have a 2950 with perc 5 so I think perc 6 will be an upgrade for me.
Yes, i'm ready to sell, however, it seems like you're not from UK so it might work out cheaper to buy locally. I'll most likely sell at a similar price as there are not really worth much.
I live in California but have dual US-UK nationality and am originally from the UK. :-) I'll gladly buy your perc 6 as shipping will be cheap (it's not a heavy or bulky piece of equipment) and then I know for sure I'm getting something that will work. :-) Please e-mail me at . I can pay in Sterling. Thank you. :-)

I also have the R710 and these part numbers for the controller card and accessories.
T954J for PERC 6/i controller card
NU209 is for the battery
JC881 is for the battery assembly cable
You'll also need the cable for the hdd, which depends on if you have a 2.5 or 3.5 hdd slots.

Do keep in mind that the PERC6i cannot handle disks over 2TB in size, and isn't a good performer, especially if you plan to use any SSDs.
