Poweredge R410 SAS External Controller question.

So there are two slots on the riser?  One is the integrated slot you mentioned?  Or is the riser not used at all for the Perc 6?

Hello mboyett5620

Does the 6/i use the port I need to install this?  Or is there still a PCIx slot available?

The PERC 6 integrated uses the integrated storage slot. The external controller should be installed into the other slot, so yes you can install both at the same time.

Thanks

Thanks for the help.

I still need some help. I went to install that card and the main controller is installed in the black slot. So I can't install my card. Is it possible to move that controller down to the white slot? Would it start up?

No, there is a specific controller type that goes into the white slot. You can try, but I doubt it would work. The integrated version of the controller connects to the white integrated storage slot. The adapter version of the controller goes into a normal PCI slot like the black one.

Thanks
