Dell Perc H710P - max drive size
Hello,
we have a Dell PowerEdge R720 with the Perc H710P as controller.
The final use of the server would be a storage/backup server.
The server has 16 2.5" bays, hence we would like to use all the bays with 5TB or bigger drives.
Unfortunately, looking on the internet, I couldn't find the max size of the disks that the controller is compatible with.
Is anyone able to help me?

Hello
There is no specification that lists a disk size limit because it is theoretical. I don't know if the 5TB disks will work, but if they don't work the reason won't be because of the size.

Also keep in mind when getting large drives that the H710 doesn't support 4kn drives.
