MD1200 on 9G server
I have a customer with large base of old server 9G. Preparing a full replacement of these servers within next 2 years, we need to find a short term solution for adding space on these servers.
Have you seen a solution to connect SAS2 arrays with SAS connectors, respectively MD1200 on old PERC6e ?
Have we a chance to find convertor between SAS and SAS2?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Patrick Winkler

Hello Patrick,
PERC H800 is the only host controller supported for PowerVault MD1200. Now with that being said the PERC6e that you have could work but it is not stable & that is why we state that the PERC H800. When using the PERC6e you tend to get drop off & random disconnects but you can get it to work it is just not reliable.
