HD compatibility 13G 12G

Will 11G-12G hard drives work in 13G servers if we have the right caddies?

Or is there a different firmware for 13G HDD's?

Lokited,

If you would, could you provide me with the part numbers for the drives in question? I have yet to see a cross compatible drive between the 12th and 13th generation servers, but I can try to verify from the part you have if it is compatible.

Let me know.

Chris,

I'm looking at multiple drives. Is there a special firmware needed to work with the new perc controllers?

Let me give you one example:

Dell part number DTK38.

In euro shop it shows as compatible with gen 11, 12 and 13 (see T630 entry)

<ADMIN NOTE: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell>

In US shop it doesn't list the T630 as compatible.

Any update on this ?  Lokited provided some sku if u could shed some light on firmware compatibility.

Got 13G drives to be used in 11G servers but i can't find any solid info if it would detect and function well.
