Power Edge R410 Dell 1TB SP 50XV4 compatibility
Hello,
I have a Power Edge R410 server with 2 500G disks in RAID 1, function ok.
When try to deploy two more 1 T Disks(Dell 1TB SP 50XV4 ) in RAID 1, the raid controller do not recognise then.
I want help in knowing if:
- is a compatibility problem; if so,
- what the right disk to assembly; or if,
- could be an other kind of mistake.
best regards,
P0SA

Hello
50XV4 is a Dell certified drive that will work in the R410. Functionality is dependent on the controller. I suggest reviewing the controller manual to make sure the controller you are using supports the drive. If your other drives are SAS then it could be a mixing violation. Most of our controllers support drive mixing as long as they are not in the same virtual disk, a few of our controllers do not allow drive mixing across the entire controller. Review the controller manual for possible issues with your configuration.
