• SAS 6/iR integrated SAS + SATA (SSD) negotiated speed PE1950

  Hello

  I installed on my PE1950 III two disks in SAS 6/iR integrated (embedded).

  The first is SAS 73 GB 15 k that uses 3Gbps and the second is EVO 840 Samsung 250 GB (ssd). I know that these SSD is not supported by Dell, but it works very well, just one problem: I'm having negotiated speed 1.50Gbps, which should be 3 Gbps (Maximum reading rate I'm testing is ~ 150 MB/s, this SSD supports up to 500 MB/s).

  I have not installed on a SATA Interposer, mixing with SAS hdd on the controller. Could interposer solve the problem and let me use entire 3Gbps from the channel? I have an unused connection to the House, but by asking if it's worth going to the data center and place one on the SATA.

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  Yes, the SSD is not officially supported on the SAS 6/IR.

  Sometimes I run a similar setup on my home desktop system. I had not noticed that my EVO 840 had negotiated to 1.5.

  I started the BIOS of the SAS 6 controller and indeed the negotiated 840 to 1.5. I'm on my OS on the EVO GB 840 250 and I 2x1To than SATA in RAID 0 for the data drives. The SATA drives are 3.0.

  I installed the latest version of the Samsung magician software: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/samsungssd/downloads.html and used it to update the EVO to the latest firmware. I rebooted and started in the BIOS OF THE controller without change. He was still negotiating to 1.5.

  Then, I stole an inserter of one of my 2950 servers and attached to the EVO 840. I started in the BIOS OF THE controller, and it is now negotiating to 3.0, so it would seem that an inserter will allow him to negotiate the connection speed correctly.

  Thank you

• R720 can I connect drive sas/sata hard without controller card?

  I have a r720 without raid card.  When I plug a ssd or disc of 15 k / 10 k sas on the hotswap backplane, chassis recognizes the drive is connected (I get an orange light and lcd to alert that the disc is removed when I go out).  However, the bios and the operating system does not recognize any disks hotswap (they see only the optical drive connected to the ports on the motherboard sata.

  Do I need a controller card to use drives connected on the backplane, or is it possible to use backplane without controller card?  I didn't need raid functionality.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello Shane

  Do I need a controller card to use drives connected on the backplane, or is it possible to use backplane without controller card?  I didn't need raid functionality.

  Yes, you must have a controller connected to the bottom of basket. If you have purchased the system without a RAID controller should have a SAS cable that goes from the backplane to the slot of controller S110 chipset on the system board.

  You can use the S110 SATA controller on board for communication with backplane. Well, there are limits to the S110 controller, so may not suit your needs. You can probably buy LSI 9207 if you want readers to run in a non-RAID. The other options are a H710 PERC; which you can set the readers to the single drive RAID 0 s. In this State, they function as drives no RAID. You can also get a H310. The H310 supports the RAID mode, but we have added a few features to the H310 who do not find in previous versions of the card. In doing so, it reduced performance when operating in a mode non-RAID.

  The reason why I say that you'll probably want another controller than the S110 is because you mentioned that you have SAS disks. The S110 is a single SATA controller. In addition, the S110 is supported up to 4 discs.

  To access the BIOS RAID make sure the S110 is turned on in THE system BIOS. In the BIOS, go to SATA settings. In the menu choose the RAID mode. It will turn on the S110 controller. You can configure the drives in the BIOS S110 when booting with the CTL R. I do not know what operating system, you perform the installation, but the S110 is compatible with Windows.

  Thank you

• T420 - Question of disk drive (wired Sata + SAS / Sata 2.5 / 3.5 is possible?)

  Hello

  I bought the T420 PowerEdge with a single SATA drive. I've added 3 more to max on internally wired to 4

  I wonder, do I ALSO have to add the hot swap 2.5 or 3.5 and all have work. I guess I have to buy a special raid card if it is at all possible.

  I want to be able to do is have the 4 cables + start adding the other 2.5 or 3.5 (based on price) and build slowly upward.

  If possible, could you please recommend this card, I have to use to get there?

  Thank you very much

  DellUserMichael,

  Unfortunately, you wouldn't be able to do, it is because the chassis are different depending on the storage option selected. T420 storage options are the

  

  1                                   2                                 3

  • Player 4 option x 3.5 inches: (#1).
    • Cable drive bays
    • SAS and SATA disk drive

  8 x 3.5 or 2.5-inch drive option(#2)

  • Hot swappable drive bays
  • SAS, SATA or SSD drives

  option 16 x 2.5 in drive: (#3)

  • Hot swappable drive bays
  • SAS, SATA or SSD drives

  So the question is the chassis are actually different by the selected option.

  Let me know if it helps.

• How to extract all the drives SAS/SATA and Ethernet port speed of the link command line?

  Hello

  Do you know if supports Windows OS built in order to extract all the SAS/SATA drives and ports Ethernet link speed?

  i.e. for SATA3 drive it show 6 Gbps, for DIS3 drive it will show 12 Gbps, to present the current link speed.

  i.e. for Ethernet 10 G, it will show 10 Gbit/s while the current connection speed is at 10 Gbps.

  I need the command to create a batch file to run bike test to check all connection speeds are correct in each cycle the system power runs, if the Windows operating system does not support built in order to achieve this, please send us any tool of 3rd - party with the support of the command line to do this.

• Buy list HCL SATA or SAS SSD?  Why the consumer grade SATA SSD are meaningless.

  Hello

  I run a node 4 VSAN 6 Cluster with a LSI SAS in Raid-0 Mode controller listed HCL (a 975 queue depth) to which I currently attached: 3 x 10 k SAS Enterprise RPM hard drives and 1 x Samsung 850 SATA Pro 512 GB SSD. The nodes are the same.

  These SSD is due to budgetary constraints. I too put in service the SSD 512 GB to 400 GB and they seem to controllers and BIOS as 400GO devices.

  Performance is horrible. Overall, VM feel morose.

  When you make a copy of a file of DVD ISO file (say 3GB) on one virtual computer to another, I get extremely high 100 MS to 300ms or even higher disk latencies on both virtual machines. When a regeneration occurs because I take a node in Maint.mode with 'full datamigration', or I re - apply a strategy of backup to say "band bandwidth 2" to "stripe-width 3", the whole cluster crushed essentially to a halt. " VM has become so slow and on Linux VM I get same kernel-messages on scsi timeouts, etc. None of the work of the virtual machine, they freeze and basically die because "the disc is extremely unresponsive.

  I'm not alone in this. I have read many similar stories on the net and it often comes down to the 'consumer grade SATA SSD' who these Samsungs are after all.

  I guess I have the same problem.

  My question is this: I have the right to replace the Samsung 850 Pro with either a SAS disk SSD Sandisk which is listed HCL * or * using Intel DC S3700 SATA SSD that are also in the HCL currently for 6 VSAN.

  What I don't understand is: ' if the SATA SSD that I use currently, form a bottleneck due to the depth of the SATA Interface of 32 queue, how can we * all * SATA SSD be on the HCL at all?

  I doubt that these Intel DC S3700 are much faster than the Samsung 850 Pro and they are two SATA drives and they both have a personal 32 queuedepth and all the interface SATA has a 32 port queuedepth pro. So how can disks SATA works in a system of VSAN. I just makes no sense.

  Everyone is to fight to death on "queue-depth queue depth queue depth. Cormac Hogan, Duncan Epping, everyone who is an authority on VSAN. A queue-depth too low controllers were thrown out of the HCL etc etc etc

  When I look at the SSD Intel S3700 HCL wrote:

  Mandatory features:

  Drive performance, disc reliability, queue depth, SMART SATA Surprise Power Removal, trim attributes / Unmap, Cache write, write the NDR

  It says "tail-depth" as one of the requirements that responds to this SDS. But SATA, by definition, has a maximum queue-depth 32 which is much too small. So, how can it meet "tail-depth"? It is SATA!

  The Intel DC S3700 would cost me about half of the money the SAS SSD Sandisk and of course, if Intel is going to solve my problems of performance, then I'll take those. But if I'm just as much trouble afterwards because of the queue depth of the SATA Interface of 32, then I better invest in the SAS SSD (but which could exhaust my budget for other things so I'd rather not).

  Anyone can shed some light on this?

  (edit: I changed the title to better reflect my findings)

  Update: I bit the bullit, obtained a second mortgage, said my child may not be able to go to College and I bought the SAS SSD (Sandisk 200 GB 6 G SAS). In each of the four nodes, I did a complete data migration, replaced the Samsung 850 Pro SATA SSD with the SSD SAS and macaroni holy, all my problems disappeared.

  The whole system feels much more receptive and do things like clone a virtual machine (which would grind the whole cluster to stop) never stops working like nothing happens.

  Before, when I did a simple copy of an ISO to a virtual computer DVD file to another, I would like to get, maybe, 20 MB/s and the entire cluster has started feeling lethargic until the copy job is completed. Now, I get speeds ranging from 80 to 90 MB/s and so bright and responsive.

  What a difference!

  I'm a very happy man.

  Moreover, my network is a 1 Gbps where each node has two NIC in a LACP LAG and I can clearly see a node to talk to another network node 1 NIC and talk to another node on the other card NETWORK LACP nicely splits the traffic on the two cards.

  The system feels so fast now and reconstructions / present a new application of storage policies is difficult to have an impact, and generally occur much more quickly than before.

  And really, the only thing I did was swap the Samsung 850 Pro SATA SSD with these SAS SSD.

  Lesson learned: either pay the money of the SAS SSD (which are on the HCL, of course) who is the best, or get certified company VSAN grade SATA SSD but STAY AWAY to consumers rank of SATA SSD because they do not have what it takes. They cannot empty their queues fast enough and all clutter as soon as there is a bit of the system load.

  Just don't do it. Forget the consumer SATA rank. It's like throwing money down the toilet. I've been there and I learned the hard way. Let me be the stubborn donkey, so you don't ;-)

• Reference Audio Dell - will automatically switch on the headphones when you plug them.

  XPS 9350 - 10 Windows

  Can I do Audio Dell (or something) automatically route the sounds of my helmet when I plug them?  I saw no option in the Audio from Dell menu to toggle this option.

  I do a bit of work to the library of my school, which means I have to be quiet.

  The problem is that when I plug my headphones, I have to wait for Dell Audio for pop - up and then I have to confirm my selection of "headphones with microphone" above all sound will go to them.  Then only will be moving to my helmet.  While I do this, my computer starts hanging and beep all the recent notifications for anyone nearby to hear, until I do the confirmation.

  To make things worse, if I plug my headphones on the Windows lock screen, and then log in, Dell Audio pop up just never came up. However, I still give it Windows notification Center make me notice, but it is non-interactive.  Then I have to unplug the headphones, expect that all of the alerts saying I have disconnected something go, then plug the new.  If I wait more for alerts clear selection Windows Audio Dell don't is not loading.  Once again, beeps and dings are once I have connect and do all this.

  Of course, it's just as much I na not mute until I closed the lid, the last time that I used it.

  SOLUTION: the context menu is not clear.

  If you check the option at the bottom telling not to appear whenever something is plugged in, it will automate just about whether you connect (at least I can assure you that for "headphones with microphone").

  The way that the radio button is made, simply looks like it's supposed to just disable the pop up and nothing more.

  Actually try updating your driver and check with Dell Support and Forums if necessary.

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
