Software RAID
· HPE Smart Storage SR100i SR Gen10 Plus SW RAID
Notes:
- All models feature an embedded storage controller, capable of operating on AHCI or SR100i modes, with embedded software supporting RAID for either up to 14 SATA drives or 2 NVMe SSDs. In addition, all models feature 2 x8 PCIe 4.0 connectors per socket for NVMe SSDs, which must be used on SR100i mode. NVMe SSDs are qualified on SFF models only.
- HPE Smart Storage SR100i SR Gen10 Plus SW RAID will operate in UEFI mode only. For legacy support an additional controller will be needed, and for CTO orders please also select Legacy mode setting (758959-B22).
- HPE Smart Storage SR100i SR Gen10 Plus SW RAID is off by default and must be enabled.
- Supports Microsoft Windows Server only.
- For Linux users, HPE offers a solution that uses in-distro open-source software to create a two-disk RAID 1 boot volume. For more information visit: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/project/lsrrb/
· Intel VROC NVMe for HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus
Notes:
- All models feature 2 x8 PCIe 4.0 connectors per socket for NVMe connectivity. On 2P configurations, these provide support for up to 8 direct attach NVMe bays. Options available to connect 2 additional bays.
