PowerEdge R820, internal SSD boot drive
Hellol, I want to run Citrix Xenserver 7.x from an internal SSD, not one of the (8) 2.5" drive in the drive bays, suggestions? I've tried 2 options.
PCIE SSD is recognized but throws a fatal BIOS error: "ahci.efi" assuming PCIE boot drive capability is not compatible for R820. If you have any info that would make this work, that would be much appreciated.My best choice.
Second option mSata which I've successfully used on PE2950's. There does not seem to be connector available I can get power to the adapter that runs the card. In a 2950, I used a Y splitter for power going to the DVD. Same here, if you have any info that would make this work, it would be much appreciated.
I updated R820 firmware yesterday, 2-17-2019, so that is not an issue. PCI-e card is "Sedna".
Thank you.
