NMH300: single drive RAID 1

Hi all, I have a NMH300 with 1 HD, but in the future, I would like to add a second drive (similar) to create a RAID 1 array. Did you know that if I have to format the 2 discs or I can insert the second disk, and then RAID will be created automatically configuring the raid option in the administration tool?

Thank you and best regards,
Mauro

The 1st disk of Original data will NOT be erased. Everything will be mirrored on the 2nd HD.

  • H200A PERC. SAS and SATA. Simple 2 extra HARD drives raid. Possible?

    Hello.
     
    Research in the server rack dell R210 II.
     
    Added records 2 x 300 GB SAS with a PERC H200A raid controller.
    The other two empty drive bays im looking to transfer courses two SATA 2.5 "HARD disk drives. Ive read you can mix SATA and SAS drives, is this true?
     
     
    I have two options to the raid configuration:
     
    the raid controller would be able to support two raid 1 RAID. 1 for the SAS drives and the other for the two SATA drives?   Operating system can see two disks.
     
    He would support a raid 1 for hard 1 & 2 discs.  Then with disk HARD 3 & 4 show the HARD drive directly on the server.  OS sees thre readers.  The drive in question and two others.
     
     
    I tried the dell chat, but could not get anywhere, as the helpdesk agent does not seem to know that you can google some caddy and buy the caddy to adapt to discs with no carts.

    [murmur] I'm wrong :), but I think the H200 supported not RAID, so if left unconfigured, the disks will be seen by the operating system as the person/no RAID disks.  Also, if I am wrong not :), the H200 supports a maximum of 2 virtual drives, so would not work two 1-disk RAID 0 and a RAID 1 (in fact, it probably won't allow you to create a single drive RAID 0 in all).

  • 8 drive raid 5 or 50, and SATA3 vs SATA2

    Have a SATA3 RAID with SATA3 readers card will be significantly higher then a SATA2 RAID/HD configuration? Or if I have enough disks in a RAID, SATA2 disks will be good enough?

    If I have 8 drives on a RAID card (I have the Adaptec 6805 in mind), regardless if it is SATA2 or SATA3 and whatever the final capacity, it is advantageous to have a 8 RAID-5 disk (7 data + 1 parity) performance, or 8 drive RAID-50 (3 data + 1 parity), multiplied by 2?

    Regarding storage benefits, in a reasonable 'ideal' world, having an 8 drive RAID, it will be perfect to have everything in the same RAID (apart from the disk to Boot and applications, of course). Or be a separate RAID (4 x cheap HDs in RAID-0, for example) for export, Cache and swap file, something which is better?  On the other hand, if I already have 12 drives in the case, would not be a single disc 12 RAID handle all the necessary flow?

    PS: I work a lot with uncompressed 4:2:2 10-bit, image sequences and sequences of AVC-Intra. Where my band need disk bandwidth.

    Frederic,

    The main difference between on one hand and raid3 raid5 / raid4 however is distributed by report dedicated to parity.

    All three raid formats are very good, but in some cases, it may be preferred over the other.

    What is the difference between dedicated or distributed parity?

    In the case of distributed parity, a reconstruction of the table requires W actions on all players.

    In the case of dedicated parity, a rebuild will require actions on all drives minus one W.

    For that reason, the reconstruction will be more effective with a dedicated with distributed parity parity. RAID3/4 are more effective with new buildings than raid5.

    ATTO is a rather unknown to consumers, but they are the only one to offer raid4.

    Areca is relatively well known, even among consumers and are the only ones offering raid3.

    You mentioned 12 discs, so with this in mind, I made my suggestion for an alternative configuration.

  • Driver RAID WXP Neer and CISS for my Satellite C650 - 10K

    Anyone know where I can find the driver Raid and CISS for my Satellite C650 - 10K?

    Hey Buddy,

    Are you sure you need to RAID or SCSI (not SSCI) for Satellite C650 driver?
    As far as I know this model doesn't support this type of material

    I think that you need drivers for the SATA controller. This package is called Intel Storage Manager and can be downloaded from the official website of Toshiba.

    Here is an interesting article on installing XP with SATA drivers:

  • replacing a drive RAID 1 failure in PowerEdge T710

    I just got the disk(146GB) of replacement for one of the disks RAID 1 has failed. I would like to know what the best approach is to replace the defective with the new one (same size), now that the spare drive (300 GB) is used by the raid. I want to get the bigger drive and re - assign as a global hot spare, by the original configuration is possible without disconnecting the server?

    Here is my config:

    T710 Server (8 discs - 4 X 146 GB, 4 x 300 GB)

    PERC H700 integrated

    2x146GB drives - RAID 1

    2x146GB drives - RAID 1

    3x300GB drive - RAID 5

    1 x 300 GB disk - hot spare

    Thank you.

    This should work for you. What it will do is essentially the same process I described. When you insert the replacement drive and implement the Member to replace it will fail then the immediate replacement and then start reconstruction on replacement.

    Can you get the external floppy drive (floppy drive) and load the RAID drivers using this disc which should be connected using the USB port?

    This floppy drive, you can buy on eBay for a few euros.

  • S100, driver RAID and Win XP

    I just bought a S100. According to the company policy, I removed the pre-configured OS and added our own generation based on a disk from an earlier toshiba machine image. This procedure is usually simple and usually only requires that twist slightly to get the right drivers installed. With the S100 RAID drivers cause me a problem. Win XP does not see the disk hard by default in this machine and if you press F6 and provide the drivers from the floppy drive. If you do this, the drive is recognized and start installing XP, but a message will appear asking you for the Toshiba RAID driver a second time. For this second attempt XP does not seem to be able to read the disk A:\ more and so the installation can not continue. Has anyone seen this problem before, and if so, did you manage to solve it?

    Best regards, J.

    Hello John

    The Toshiba RAID driver must be added during the installation, when prompt to 'press F6 if you need to install a third-party RAID or SCSI driver.
    To do this, download the Toshiba RAID driver from the Toshiba web page driver download and extract the zip to a disk file. Connect the floppy drive to your computer before starting the installation.
    The Setup program continues until you are asked if you want to "S = specify additional device. Press' and specify the driver Toshiba Raid for XP or 2000 as required. Press 'Enter' to continue the installation.

    When you use Windows Setup to partition or format the HARD drive, the RAID driver is deleted in the process. This causes the shot the next time that the machine start-up. To avoid this, do all the partitioning and formatting before you run the manual installation of Windows.

    However, this behavior does not appear when you install Winxp Service Pack 2 integrated. It seems that the SP includes a hardware support. Always provide the RAID driver unpacked on the diskette, however.

    Good bye

  • Qosmio G30: How to add the driver RAID without floppy drive?

    I'll put win xp tomorrow, as far as I can remember I will be asked to insert a floppy with additional RAID/SCSI drivers - I guess I need some drivers for XP see my RAID stripe.

    I was able to download 'raid-drv-qog20-xp - 1380.zip', but I'm afraid to look if my laptop has a floppy drive... How can I add the driver did not have a floppy drive?

    Hello

    Maybe a stupid comment, but if you can buy Qosmio G30 I presume that you can also get a used floppy disk. I did this a few times with Vista and Qosmio G30 and it works well.

    Check eBay. You will get the drive used for a few euros. Otherway tries to create CDs and if the RAID drive must travel to ODD, I didn't try because I have a FDD, but you can test it on your Qosmio.

  • Back to single drive - blue led flashing for more than 5 hours now

    After trying a second drive, I wanted to go back to your hard drive 1 TB (nhm410) original.

    So I clicked on the "back to the single disk.

    The Web interface gave me 15 minutes to several hours warning. clicked ok and the mht410 restarted (I assume that was the case).

    The LCD screen is out and the powerbutton flashing in blue.

    He does this now for 5 hours.

    Think it's fake. Several hours is 2-3 hours... not 5 or more...

    Is it save to reset the device?

    Don't think it can do anything harmful to the drive as it should also be possible to change the primary hard drive...

    What do you think guys?

    Yes, it should be safe to reset and turn the unit off. Just make sure that you upgrade the firmware again after resetting it.

    Keep we have no progress!

  • PERC H330 and Raid 5, try adding another SATA drive raid 5 array

    Hi all

    I have one server PowerEdge T330 with 8 slots of disc and have currently 3 SATA drives running a raid 5 configuration.  I have a virtual disk configured for Raid (must).

    The operating system recognizes the disk and is able to use the resources...

    My desire is to add another hard drive to the table (hard disks of the same size, same brand, etc.) with 4 disks without losing any data.

    I looked in the settings of the iDrac and the only adjustment was to add the new disk as a global hot spare or a hot spare dedicated to the virtual drive.

    I also looked in the BIOS and do not see a way to add the new drive.

    Does anyone know how to increase capacity?  I can blow the virtual drive if necessary and start over without problem.  I intend to gradually accomplish this Act until adding 8 disks. (5 times).

    Help!

    Hello.

    Management controllers RAID and tables is not made in the BIOS iDRAC or systems. For the management of the RAID (virtual disks) arrays, you have OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA). If not installed, see the link: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=TK61C once installed, go to-> Storage->-> H330 PERC controllers-> virtual disk--> sub tasks available-> select reconfigure and run-> then check a box to add the fourth disk on the next page. Follow the prompts and allows you to extend your range of RAID 5.

  • Question of firmware update hard drives/RAID

    We have a Server Power Edge R210II with OS MS Server 2008R2 and a Controller PERC H200 RAID (two disc HARD 1 TB Seagate SATA in RAID1).
    Recently, there is a new firmware for Seagate drives on a dell (Package update for MS Windows) support site.
    I really don't want to lose the server :) and never update firmware on the disks on the server with RAID (I've updated the players only on PC).
    Can someone tell me a procedure to update the firmware on my drives? Problems with the upgrade, best practices etc?
    Thanks for any help,
    Marius

    Best practices:

    • First have a backup. Should data not destructive, but everything can happen.
    • Use SUU or Repository Manager to update ALL of your system - iDRAC/BIOS firmware, PERC and other firmware must be updated before the firmware of the HARD drive.

    Most HARD drive firmware updates are bootable, so you just get the utility boot and update.

    You cannot update firmware of the drive not Dell with Dell firmware (i.e. If you bought the retail/generic readers).

    Hi cfpatron,

    Assuming that your disks are configured as RAID 1, the best approach is to buy a drive with the same capacity that has failed, replace and allow the controller to rebuild the RAID.
