Someone may have been able to successfully do a backwards migration and could give information on what firmware revision and steps they took. Migrating to an older controller would not likely be supported, so yes you would likely have to reinstall the OS and restore from backup. I assume the OS would have to be re-installed to change to the SAS6iR from the H200 but getting the ability to add the additional NICs is of higher benefit.The OpenManage Storage Management User's Guide should have all of the possible migration paths listed. Performance of SATA drives on an H200 will be fairly poor, how much data are you looking to write each day, if you continuously write large amounts of data on that controller you could potentially see high iowaits whereas an H700 would be much more suitable (at. On a 2Tb SATA setup youre much better of using an H700 with 1Gb NV cache. ![]() I only need Raid 1, so if the SASiR would work with the hot swap drives that might be a solution. RAID rebuild will take quite a while on an H200 controller. The Link to the raid controller shows a PERC H200 Modular, that cannot be installed in the R410, but the SAS6iR can?I show that the adapter version of the H200 is listed as compatible for the R410 on that page, so the information appears to be correct. ![]()
