the rules for mixing hard drives:
DA - 12505 Canada — Version 27 — January 7, 2008
1.
The boot/data drive must
be SATA to load before
any SAS drive.
2.
Any size or speeds may be
chosen for 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
