Don't get me wrong, Dell has solid system when money is no issue. I find it flexibility lacking when it comes to Dell products. I do run Mac, Linux and one Win Server (IBM for 5 years) with no problem/failure yet. I do run various system on Enterprise(V-Rack models) and mid-size environment using various RAIDs depending on the need of each area. I gave up on the online KB as, in most cases, designed for people work with Dell or familiar with their system. Everything they recommend is supper high expensive in comparison with HP and IBM.įor example, I don't know if I can use my 2 X 1TB of Green WestDigital brand and swap it with existing two hard drives. One of the biggest problem with Dell is the price unfortunately and Dell has not stepped up in providing flexible pricing for small or mid-size businesses. My client will replace the existing one when time comes with different configuration. I might just replace these two HDs (RAID 1 for sure) with 2 X 1TB and add additional RAM to make it faster and keep it for the next year or two at the most. On one of Dell's KB, use of SSD with SATA HD on H200 is not recommended (

I don't mind keep running the existing and yet old system of T410 running on Win Server 2008 R2, but the HD's are almost full (they are both 500GB) and my client wants to go that way (SSD). Thanks Kevin for your concern and recommendation! It is still the most important thing to consider here. If it's a multirole machine built directly on hardware, rebuilding to take advantage of virtualzation will help with migration and DR and troubleshooting, but it won't help your performance. If it is the disk where you have your bottleneck go with SSD raid5 or HDD raid10.

Your T410 is probably dual socket capable and or you may be able to upgrade procs or ram. Recommend researching your cause of performance issues elsewhere first. Running two Hyper-V hosts with replication protects from disk failure, but does nothing about backup.
And you get the risk of complete failure. If you have a system with a SSD for boot and 2TB for a datastore with Hyper-V or VMWARE you get zero performance benefit over a raid1 array. Get-Host in Powershell will tell you if the system is a Hyper-V guest and the name of the Host. Some will work physical machines but there are often more quirks. Modern backup and recovery tools are largely dependent on virtualzation. The H200 is a miserable excuse of a raid controller when compared to the H730, but when compared to no raid. Xosrawhakim: you are doing yourself and your client a disservice. The systme is extremely slow and it was passed onto me and i think the perc and raid setuo never setuo oriperly.

With windows server i am new and decided to keep it instead iof switching it to LINUX or Mac since one software runs only on windows(at least for now)Īny insights would help to keep what is running for a year or two. I am very familiar with LINUX and Mac and running many servers with 100's of accounts and so on. How would you migrate the OS (windows server 2008 R) exists in on partition with all its setupsI an thinking about cloninig it usinf Acronis or Clonzilla BUT again i want to make sure i do not screwup things. SO can i just unplug the controller and use electrical/cables for my SSD and another 2 TB FOR backups? Do i have to change the Bios setting before or prior? So I agree with you that RAID is important, but i do not want to worry about maintainig it. Nowadays virtualization is hot and easy to maintain. 10 years ago, RAID was hot due to reasons i mentiined.

You do not have to have aRAID to keep the business going or not worry about backups.įor a windows server box, i want to leave it free of integerated controls and put a off-box bacup or clone system outside, fir example QNAP or SYNOLOGY. I have a bit of understanding of RAID and its advantages, but still want to get away from it as technology and prices are change big time.
