NX3100 and MD1200s with SSDS / SAS - Cachecade activation

Have inherited a NX3100 and two MD1200 with four 149 GB SSD and the twenty 600 GB 15 k SAS drives.

I was not able to allow Cachecade as well as PERC H800 in the NX3100 is only a backup to battery 512 MB of memory.

My questions are:

The PERC H800 can be improved by installing the module 1 GB NV and the necessary firmware?

Will be available to upgrade if I have to buy a new PERC H800 NV Cachecade 2.0 that allows write RAM 1 GB with Cachecade (1.0) already in the firmware?

The PERC H810 there already Cachecade version 2?  If so, will it work in a Dell 510 Server?

It would not be supported by Dell, but would not void the warranty. However, if you have problems with the MD1200, support may require you to remove the H800 and let them test the installation with that.

  • RAID works using MD1200 r.620 and 6 GB/s SAS HBA?

    We have a r.620 with Dell SAS HBA already in which is attached to a tape of 124 t library.

    Just got a MD1200 and I plugged in the other port on the SAS HBA.  I can see the drives in Windows Disk Manager.  I can also see Open Manage, but there is no option to use RAID functions or create virtual discs.  Should there be?

    In fact, OpenManage said "Connector 0 (no RAID)" with regard to the SAS 6 GB/s HBA.   I searched online for drivers for this card that allow RAID and can not find.  Am, I watered?   How the RAID to work on the MD1200?

    Hello wardog25,

    For the MD1200 you use a PERC card because it will allow that you create a raid array. The SAS 6hba that is used for your 124 t isn't a raid card, so you will not be able to create a raid on this map. For a MD1200, we recommend that you use a PERC H800. Here is a link to the Guide of interoperability for the MD1200 & if you look at page 2, it lists the supported raid controllers. FTP://FTP.Dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_ser_stor_net/esuprt_powervault/PowerVault-md1200_Reference%20Guide_en-us.PDF

    Here is a link to buy a PERC H800 if you need.

    Please let us know if you have any other questions.

    Hello Arjan

    Yes, you can use SSDS in RAID 1.

    The controller supports the TRIM and cancel orders mapping. SSD MLC are grade consumer SSD which will not have the life expectancy of SLC.

  • 8 GB RAM with ssd and ram 12 GB without ssd cache cache

    We are looking to buy a laptop HP Envy 17 t j100 touchsmart for our son.  Which would be better:

    8 GB of RAM with SSD exceleration 24gig or 12 GB of ram without ssd cache memory?

    The cache of WSSD 24gig offers performance very similar to a full SSD drive for a much lower cost. I would buy the unit with the drive cache of the WSSD 24 concert and as little memory as they sell me and then increase the RAM me but 8 GB of RAM it's frankly more than many. In fact, it's probably better than 12 because there 2 identical modules allowing the functioning of memory dual channel. To summarize, the best option is clearly 8 GB RAm and the WSSD of 24 concert disk cache.

  • Suggested Drive setup for new h8 - 1360t with SSD and Raid-1 array

    All,

    I need some advice on how to configure the drives in my new system (waiting for construction and delivery, sigh).

    I bought a plan to replace the 1 TB drive with a new drive SSD that I start from and H8 - 1360T (Win 7 Pro).

    I also have a Raid-1 array in an old HP 4999 T system (Vista) disks Western Digital Caviar Black 2x2TB

    By looking at the motherboard plug appear to be only SATA0/1 6 GB/s, the others are 3GBPS.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03132942

    I was a little surprised by that and need some advice.

    1. If I put the SSD on SATA0 or SATA1, the quickest way?

    2 or do I put the drives Raid-1 array and move the SSD to path of 3 Gbps?

    I think this last (option 2), but wanted to get your entry in case missed me something.

    Thank you

    Joel

    Ruette,

    Thanks for your comments. Looks like I should start with Option 1 as a better starting point.

  • (Redirected) Cannot boot from the HARD drive on dell n5010 with SSD and HARD drive installed

    I have my old dell n5010 (15R Inspiron) with SSD (Samsung EVO 840 120 G) installed on the main drive Bay and the HDD (Samsung HJJ 500 G) on the optical drive Bay.

    It is a typical way to add an SSD on such an old laptop (bought from dell.com.cn in 2011).

    My Windows 10 operating system has been installed on the SSD using Samsung Data Migration software, so the previous C drive was pointless. So I formatted and installed an operating system Ubuntu 14.04 on it, hoping the grub OSs double beginning located on the HARD disk.

    However, I find no the Dell bios boot option to boot from the HARD drive installed in my optical drive Bay. All the choices are 'Hard Drive', 'Network' and 'Diagnostic '.

    But I was definitely sure that my bios program has detected the SSD and HDD with information on the main menu of the bios.

    And the LED on the optical drive Bay was immediately once I pressed the Start button on my laptop.

    As a general rule, all things were right except for options of the bios boot.

    Is there a way I can boot from HDD (with installed Ubuntu) while remaining has my SSD on the main drive Bay? I don't want to swap their positions, because the SSD is super fast on the main drive Bay.

    I have alse won't migrate 10 Windows to the HARD drive and reinstall Ubuntu on the SSD, because I'd like my windows be loaded quickly.

    Someone at - it the same problem with me?

    Any suggestion is appreciated!

    As you have a laptop, better make this laptop in the computer Forum post here:

  • switching with SSD hard drive and install windows 8.1

    Hello

    I plan to buy a SSD Samsung 850 pro / evo (if you recommend to stick to a 840 please let me know)

    I have an alienware r4 bought in September 2014 I got with a normal 3 TB hard I now want to change just a storage disk and install a SSD drive with windows on it.

    I have reinstall windows 8.1 once before because of a problem before so im not new and understand the basic. But when even assume I don't know incase I missed a step, or something that should have been done.

    I also understand that the key of windows remains on computers that have a UEFI boot mode. If this correct?

    Are there any special steps I need to do to install an SSD

    I've also heard when to reinstall windows on your computer, that you need something with you mother of the Council which has not made when I first did a reinstall of windows on my computer. But it's a clean install of windows. I don't know what - this 'clean installing windows"and if it is not necessary to then please let me know.

    All I really want to do is to install windows on a card SSD to speed up performance without having to buy a new cd and would like to know if the pilot that were usually recommended for my computer will work as it should be, or do I install something different since im put an ssd card into my bench.

    Thank you

    The 850 is a great player, and if he is not a big price difference I recommend plus the 840.  Your plan to start SSD sounds good.  As long as you are using the Dell recovery disk, you won't need another Windows key.

    In some cases, you will need to opt for the SATA AHCI mode to do a clean install.  FYI, a clean install is the one who clears all data from the disk of destination.

    However, Samsung provides a free clone app (available on their website) that you can use to migrate your current installation to the new drive without all the trouble of a new facility.

  • Cloning of SSD HD via active with Filevault disk utility

    Hi all

    I want to improve my HD to SSD.

    I intend on using disk utility for recovery mode to clone my HD to a Virgin SSD I bought.

    I must, however, Filevault enabled on my HD.

    It will be a problem when it comes to cloning the drive?

    Thank you

    Adam

    No, it shouldn't be a problem. It may be necessary first turn on FileVault and encrypt the SSD. But if there is no problem just turn off FileVault on the HARD drive.

  • activate the AHCI mode on Envy Dv7 - 7398ca with SSD

    Year old i7 envy Dv7 - 7398ca notebook with SSD Samsung 840 Pro x 256.  Windows 8.1

    I've updated to the SSD shortly after I purchsed the laptop.

    No problem except the Samsung SSD Wizard software keeps tagging me as AHCI mode is disabled and must be enabled and I do not see it in the BIOS.

    Or I see anything that relates in the device as IDE Manager or other.

    It seems that the SSD is optimizing not itself based on the fact that it considers that AHCI is disabled.

    I apologize for the issue being this topic seems to be beaten to death over time, but I do not see what relates to this model or similar.

    Thanks for all the ideas.

    The system is set to ahci or RAID mode. You can tell that by opening the Device Manager and look at the storage controllers. Anyway it is optimized for SSDS and TRIM is activated. You can simply remove the program from Samsung and rest assured that your SSD is optimized.

  • Can MD1000 and MD1200 coexist nicely on a PERC6e?

    Hi, I have a PE2950 with windows 2008r2 with a PERC6/e controller with two external ports.  One of the ports is attached to a MD1000 disk array.  I need more storage and I'm looking to get a MD1200.  Can I attach the external port on the PERC6e one Bay MD1200 discs?  Suggestions?

    Thank you!

    -sul.

    Sul26,

    Unfortunately, you wouldn't be able to put the two of those paintings on a Perc 6 controller. The reason is that the MD1200 is a SAS 6 GB table and the MD1000 is an array of 3 GB and the connectors are completely different. You need a Perc H800 controller for the MD1200.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions.

  • Best configuration for new LR install on the machine with SSD & HDD

    Hello

    I have been in photography for years, but never got myself sorted to manage all the pictures I managed to take. So from Lightroom.

    I am a new machine with a fast 256 GB SSD, a 2 TB HARD drive, and a clean installation of LR. I also have a NAS I use for backups, but I won't probably LR actively talk to him because it is only accessible via the wireless network. My collection of photos is already in the order of 500 GB, in order to put all my photos on the SSD won't work.

    With this in mind, what is the best way to configure LR with this Setup to get the best performance out of it? The main purpose of the box will be for photography, so I don't mind too much if it uses most of the SSD.

    Tips are welcome. Thank you!
