Add a RAID controller

Question

Hello,I am currently using a PowerEdge HS5610 model. The serial number is <private information removed by MOD>.When I purchased the equipment, I did not buy a RAID card, so I would like to know if it's possible to purchase and install a RAID card separately.I want to add the Dell PERC H755 SAS Front.Can you check if this is compatible?

Hello,

I see you are looking to add a PERC H755 to the HS5610. We usually do not do reconfiguration of storage change, that is usually set at time of purchase. We don't have all inclusive kits for such field changes.

I can give you a few part numbers you will need but I encourage you to check Sales, when getting a quote, to confirm the part number and see if there are any others you may need.

You would need the controller, the tray it sits in, cable from controller to mother board, I2C and Power cable.

For the H755 it would be this part number:

405-AAXO - PERC H755 SAS Front, CK

780-BCWV - MECH Assbly for PERC11, 8X2.5 Drives, PowerEdge R660xs, Cus Kit

Included in 780-BCWV is your cable XHH7T

Part #:XHH7T

Part Desc.:ASSY,CBL,PCIE,FPERC,8X2.5,MB

ASSY Cable, PCIe, FPERC, 8X2.5inch, Motherboard

Part #:5Y1HD

Part Desc.:ASSY,MECH,FPERC,FLOD,15G

ASSY Mechanical, FPERC, Front Load

I2C and Power cable:

Part #:01XY1

Part Desc.:ASSY,CBL,PWR,I2C,X8,X10

ASSY Cable, Power, I2C, X8, X10

I believe that would be all. Again please confirm with Sales as the part numbers may be different for other regions.
