Repurpose MD3000i to new Host PowerEdge server - maintain data

We currently have a MD3000i attached to a PowerEdge 2950 running Windows 2008 r2 - and want to detach from this server and attach to a new Dell PowerEdge R320 running Windows 2012 r2 - and maintain the data and drive configurations.

Please advise - thank you!

Hello ktheld99,

So if you move all the parts from your PE2950 to your R320 with the MD then yes all data should be in tact & accessible. Now the MD3000i was never tested to work with win 2012 but it should be seen as long as the drivers are installed for the SAS card.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
