SATA and SAS may be mixed
only in a Windows
configuration and with the
inclusion of an optional SAS
controller. Here are the rules
for mixing hard drives:
The boot/data drive
must be SATA to load
before any SAS drive.
Any size or speeds may
be chosen for drives
In non-mixed Microsoft
Windows and Linux
systems, rules 2 & 3
apply.
Configure-to-order RAID
configs must all have the
same size/speed hard drives.
Up to 4 channels of SATA can
be supported natively.
NOTE*
: Factory Integrated RAID 0 Configuration (Striped Array) and RAID 1 Configuration (Mirrored Array) requires 2 hard
drives with identical speeds, capacity and interface. Hardware RAID is not supported on Linux systems. The Linux kernel,
with built-in software RAID, provides excellent functionality and performance. It is a good alternative to hardware-based
RAID. Please visit

for RAID capabilities with Linux.
