istall sas raid HBA internal card
I need to install a raid HBA internal card on a T5240. The reason is I have
more drives and the current mother board controller does not support more
than 4 drives.
My question is I have raidctl set up on current drives. If I install new HBA
card do I have to delete current raidctl and make a new raidctl for new
HBA or will new HBA work with current raidctl?

I have a V490 that has couple internal disks attached to the same dual-port HBA card that I'm planning attach to the SAN for additional storage.
Would I sacrifice performance if I use the same HBA?
Is it better to throw in a new HBA instead? (1 Reply)
