R640 NVMe hardware raid
Hi all,
As I know R640 only permits NVMe RAID with embedded S140 but it's a software RAID. Has anyone tried any PCIe M2 NVMe card with RAID1 function that works with that server or maybe another solution to have NVMe hardware raid.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
You can use NVMe PCIe SSD adapter in the system but they would not be Hardware Raid. You would still use the S140.
The S140 allows the NVMe PCIe SSD 2.5 inch SFF and the NVMe PCIe SSD adapter in a RAID configuration.

Hardware RAID was not available until the 15th Gen using the H755n. The R640 is a 14th Gen. server.
